The government has announced that the School Support Staff Negotiating Body (SSSNB) will be abolished.
The SSSNB - led by UNISON - was at the stage of testing job profiles in schools and was advanced in discussions about working time, when the ConDem government came to power.
That this is a major setback cannot be denied, but UNISON will continue to fight for a better deal for school support staff.
UNISON's demands for fair pay and conditions for school staff still stand and the fight goes on.
UNISON members will have the opportunity to direct the future campaign and a consultative ballot will take place in the New Year, 2011, on options for industrial action, negotiating possibilities and campaign priorities.
Start campaigning now to save the SSSNB
Talk to colleagues, parents and friends about the decision to abolish the SSSNB and why it is unfair. Ask them to sign the petition.
