Over a thousand, primarily women, NIPSA members met at Writers Square in Belfast today for a March and Rally to mark the first day of industrial action demanding far pay and conditions for classroom assistants across the North of Ireland. Classroom assistants had voted for strike action by a whopping 93%, after 12 years of campaigning and getting nowhere. Marchers were guarranteed by union oficials that no deals would be done behind their backs.
