The Christian Education Union Brotherhood has also requested that its members remain at home on Monday, following the Catholic Education Union’s lead. The Federation of Organizations of Teachers’ leadership will meet this afternoon for an urgent meeting to discuss the situation, the media has learned.
On March 3 and 4, the Catholic Education Union board had a member consultation before deciding to take action. The decision made by the Catholic Education Union surprised the Federation of Associations of Teachers. The measure hasn’t been considered inside the federation, according to the presidency of the Federation of Organizations of Teachers. There isn’t a labor dispute either.
As the same issues affect all other teachers in the nation, Chairman Henrietta Blokland has written to the Christian Education Union Brothers urging them to stay at home on Monday.
The Christian Education Union Brotherhood is a member of the Federation of Organizations of Teachers, which has written a letter to the Negotiating Body. The Negotiating Body’s answer to this letter is anticipated by the Federation of Organizations of Teachers by Wednesday, March 8, 00:00 at the latest. Based on that answer, Blokland says, the Federation of Organizations of Teachers will decide what else to do.
