Teachers unions back motion for industrial action

Under the current jab schedule, teachers and SNAs are set to receive their Covid-19 vaccines with the rest of the population. According to RTÉ News, the unions say changes to Ireland s vaccine schedule were announced by Government without consultation with workers representatives. The motion, which includes strike action as a possibility, says that teachers should be moved up the vaccine priority list as the essential nature of their work which requires them to be in daily contact with a large number of people from a large number of households and because social distancing is problematic and not assured given the crowded nature, structure and layout of our workplaces.

The findings are contained in a poll of more than 1,000 Teachers’ Union of Ireland members, which was carried out last month. The survey indicates the vast majority of teachers (76 per cent) believe remote learning had a disproportionately negative effect on students from disadvantaged backgrounds, while a similar proportion believe additional supports are needed for 2021-2022 to assist those students who have lost out most.
