THE Central Executive Council of the ASTI will rubber-stamp the rejection of the pay deal at its meeting tomorrow, putting it out to a ballot of members with a recommendation that they vote against the agreement.

SECONDARY school teachers have overruled their union and voted to accept the Government’s supervision and substitution deal.

IN THE forthcoming vote on the supervision and substitution scheme, I would urge ASTI members to carefully consider the real issues.

The ASTI has announced that it will delay issuing a directive to its members on the issue of voluntary supervision and substitution and instead it will seek a better deal for its members.

A crucial meeting of the ASTI's Central Executive Council is underway in Dublin to discuss the teacher's decision to withdraw voluntary supervision and substitution duties.
