Students face exam lockout as school staff vote for strike
More than 80% of staff at Kilkenny City Vocational School have voted for a one-day stoppage at their school on health and safety grounds and in the interest of safeguarding the jobs of permanent and temporary staff.
The ballot result has been sent to the Teachers Union of Ireland for ratification next Monday night and if passed, the Vocational Education Committee for the region could be served with strike notice within days.
