Teachers accept €1,400 supervision deal
The Association of Secondary Teachers of Ireland (ASTI) has voted to end two major elements of their long-running and divisive pay dispute.
Members of the 17,000-strong union, whose members teach 80% of the country's second level students, gave 63% support to accept a €1,400-a-year supervision and substitution deal. The 55% turnout also gave 58% support to a suspension of their ban on teaching new course material.
