Refusal to teach was valid trade dispute

The High Court has held that a refusal by teachers to teach a disruptive and unteachable child was a valid trade dispute over terms and conditions. The court also held that the fact that two workers had inadvertedly not been balloted did not

invalidate the ballot as its outcome would not have been determined by their votes.
