Call for suspension of junior cycle teacher training rejected

The Association of Secondary Teachers Ireland (ASTI) and Teachers’ Union of Ireland (TUI) wrote a letter on Monday asking her department to suspend school meetings and planning and continuous professional development (CPD) for the new junior cycle framework.
They suggested it would be of benefit for this to happen if they were to suspend their ongoing industrial action, under which their 27,000 members have been directed since last April not to co-operate with any of those activities anyway.
