Boycott by university staff in a row over pensions
University staff will begin a boycott of exams, coursework and marking next Thursday, in a row over pensions. The University and College Union (UCU) announced the measures at 69 universities across the UK on Monday.
It called for the boycott after a move by the employers’ representatives, Universities UK (UUK), to restructure the existing pensions scheme.
