On Tuesday 12 September, for the first time, NAHT members in Jersey joined NEU members in a day of strike action, which resulted in the closure of virtually all schools on the Island.

Speakers from both unions were joined by students and ministers in making sure they were heard loud and clear at a rally outside their parliament building.
