Speaking at the Trade Union Congress (TUC) Conference in Brighton today (Tuesday 18 October), NAHT general secretary Paul Whiteman announced that, following a national consultation with members across England and Wales, NAHT will be proceeding with a formal ballot on industrial action in both nations.

It is no exaggeration to say that the future of education is on the line.”
