Primary school heads and deputies in dispute with department
Students returning to school today won't be affected by industrial action being staged by members of the NAHT on the Island.
That's the view of Lawrie Hooper, political member for the Department of Education, Sport and Culture.
Primary school head teachers and deputy heads here voted for industrial action short of striking, in a dispute over pay rewards.
But speaking on Mandate this morning, Mr Hooper said this wouldn't impact on pupils' education as they return for the start of the new academic year:
Temporary units approved for 'critical dialysis' service in north
Injured walker rescued from Snaefell
Treasury told to look again at FOI request into Former Nurses' Home
Onchan Commissioners organise drop-in session about offshore windfarm
