Oaks Park High School in Ilford A Redbridge school has been accused of “victimising” union members who campaigned against vulnerable staff being forced to travel into work during lockdown. In January, as reported in the Ilford Recorder, Oaks Park High School in Newbury Park was accused of “bullying” and putting lives at risk by refusing to let staff work remotely. The NEU claimed staff were told to come into work to deliver online lessons, even if pregnant or disabled, or else face being disciplined. After union reps encouraged staff to exercise their legal rights to refuse unsafe work, the school changed its policy but the NEU claims these reps are now being “targeted and bullied”.
