The TUI has congratulated those students receiving their Junior Cycle results today. In addition, the union has called for a significant improvement in resourcing to tackle the recruitment and retention crisis. This would give students access to the full breadth of subjects.

The TUI has commended its members for the unequivocal message that their overwhelming mandate for industrial action gave after today’s publication of a circular letter authorising payment of an overdue 1% salary increase - backdated to 1st September 2025 - for post-primary teachers.

TUI is currently balloting our members for industrial action over the failure of Government to provide the basis for negotiations for a new national agreement. Make sure that your voice is heard and that your completed ballot paper is returned by 5pm, Friday, 2nd October.

In a national ballot, over 98% of members of the TUI have voted to engage in industrial action, up to and including strike action, over the failure to pay a 1% salary increase due as part of a set of Senior Cycle Redevelopment Implementation Support Measures that TUI members accepted.
