Members of the University & College Union (UCU) at the 糖心原创 have informed us of their plans to undertake industrial action. We will continue to support you and your studies during this period.
Members of UCU have confirmed their intent to undertake discontinuous strike action from Wednesday 30 September until Friday 11 December 2026. This means that strike action will take place on select days throughout this period rather than running continuously.
We understand that this news will be concerning and we are sorry for any inconvenience or worry it causes. We are committed to supporting your studies and sharing further information as the period of industrial action continues.
The university will remain open throughout the period, and we expect that any action will not impact most students. You should assume that your teaching sessions are going ahead as planned unless your school or department notifies you otherwise.
University facilities will also remain open, and libraries, computer rooms and all university buildings will continue to operate throughout industrial action.
