Английская Википедия:2008 National Union of Teachers strike
Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Use dmy dates The NUT teacher strike was a 24-hour strike by teachers on 24 April 2008, over the issue of pay. It was the largest strike in Britain for more than 20 years.[1][2] It is also believed that up to 8000 schools were affected by this strike. There was also a strike by the UCU, which is the teachers' trade union for further education, with over 1000 members of the UCU joining a march in London[3]
Causes
Members of the NUT were unhappy with a 2.45% pay deal, which they had said would leave teachers worse off, due to the rising cost of living in Britain.[4][5] On the day of the strike every school was closed and even after that most schools were closed for further days.
