StrikeRadarOPERATIONS-CRITICAL STRIKE INTELLIGENCEMore than 6,400 SFUSD educators plan a February 9 walkout over pay and health costs, affecting roughly 48,000 students after failed talks
More than 6,400 educators in the San Francisco Unified School District are set to begin a districtwide strike on February 9 after over a year of failed contract negotiations. It will be the city’s first teachers’ strike since 1979 and is expected to close schools serving roughly 48,000 students. Members of United Educators of San Francisco voted 97.6% to authorize the walkout, with 5,202 ballots cast, and picket lines are scheduled across the city. The dispute centers on wages and health care costs: the district has offered a 6% raise over three years, while the union seeks 15% over the same period; a state-appointed fact-finding panel recommended a 6% raise over two years, which union members rejected amid family coverage costs that many report at about $1,500 per month and a projected increase this year.
Elsewhere in education, staff at two Camden schools in the United Kingdom have launched industrial action backed by the National Education Union and Unison, with disputes focused on pay at Richard Cobden Primary School and the suspension of four union members at The Children’s Hospital School at Great Ormond Street. In California’s second-largest district, San Diego’s teachers union is preparing its first strike in 30 years on February 26 unless officials meet demands to create more special education positions and increase stipends. Taken together, the actions underscore active education-sector labor disputes on both sides of the Atlantic over compensation, staffing, and workplace conditions.
Concurrent education-union actions in San Francisco, Camden, and San Diego highlight sustained pressure over pay, benefits, and staffing that can disrupt schooling for tens of thousands of students.
