School leaders in Northern Ireland vote to take action on pay

School leaders in Northern Ireland have voted to take action on pay, if a deliverable agreement with the employers cannot be reached. The formal ballot, which was undertaken by NAHT and facilitated by an independent scrutineer, opened on 12 September and closed on 30 September.

Based on a 68% turnout, 93% of school leaders voted in favour of action short of strike, and 62% voted in favour of strike action in pursuit of a settlement.

NAHT represents the majority of head teachers and school leaders in Northern Ireland. The ballot was taken because two outstanding pay claims have not been met by the deadline, set by the union, of 31 August.
