Schools will still operate as normal, despite a work ban by principals starting this term.
\\nThose working in primary and area schools are pausing the work they do with the Education Ministry for the next two months over a recent pay offer.
\\nIt includes all work outside 8am to 5pm weekdays, apart from board meetings.
\\nNZEI lead negotiator Lynda Stuart told Tim Dower that it has nothing to do with anything that goes on within school hours.
\\nShe says anything that affects the day to day running of the schools will still go ahead, it\'s any extra work they\'re talking about.
\\nIt comes as secondary teachers are set to take more industrial action in support of their collective agreement negotiations as well.
