23 January 2023
Dear Parent/Carer
As you are aware the National Education Union (NEU) has announced both National and Regional dates for industrial action, of which five encompass the locations of our Schools. These are detailed below.
• Wednesday 1st February 23, Wednesday 15th and Thursday 16th March 23 – Birches Head Academy, Ellesmere Port Church of England College and Handforth Grange Primary School
• Tuesday 28th February 23 – Ellesmere Port Church of England College and Handforth Grange Primary School
• 1st March – Birches Head Academy
We have been informed by the NEU the number of Teachers who maybe striking on these days across our Trust. To that end, due to the numbers of staff potentially absent, our schools will remain closed to all students on these days.
If there are any changes to these intended strike days I will notify you immediately.
I thought you would appreciate receiving this information as soon as possible in order that you can make appropriate arrangements.
Yours sincerely,
Tom Quinn
Chief Executive Officer
