England were affected by the strike of NEU members on May 2. However, that was not the end! Members of the National Education Union are all set to strike again on Wednesday, July 5, and Friday, July 7. NEU members from sixth-form colleges are also expected to participate in the upcoming strike. In England, NEU is also expecting support for strike action in the autumn term. Not only NEU members, but the National Association of Head Teachers (NAHT) and the NASUWT are re-balloting their members for support in strike action. On the other hand, the Association of School and College Leaders (ASCL) is holding a ballot for national strike action in England for the first time ever. While condemning the strike action, the Department for Education has stated that it would cause «real damage» to students' learning. Teachers belonging to NASUWT in 56 sixth-form colleges in England have voted to go on strike and take other forms of action. If the ASCL, NASUWT, or NAHT take any action, it will happen during the autumn term, and they will work together with the NEU. This could result in complete school closures.
