I support my teachers! But the university and the institute should consider refunding park of fees to our students! More money for teachers, less money from students!

My teacher goes on strike, but they really thought of the students and decided to try their best to help us the most with our studying. Please support them and give them an appropriate payment please

Can students' fees be refunded if professors go on strike?? If the answer is yes, who should we contact? We paid a lot to study, but we can't get what we are expected...

It is important to remind that when staff are not paid when they take industrial action.
This is also why they do not take this decision lightly, and why some can't afford to go on strike (ironically, that is also one of the reasons why staff are on strike!)

The majority of pension benefits lost under cuts drawn up by UUK could be retroactively paid back, returning around £0.5bn to the retirement funds of the 200,000 university staff in the pension scheme. Employer body UUK forced through a package of cuts in April 2022, which included a cut to pension accrual rates and a cap on protection against inflation. But, under pressure from UCU, the Universities Superannuation Scheme (USS) trustee has released new information which shows the scheme is in such a healthy position that those lost benefits could be paid back, backdated to April—and still leave the scheme in surplus.
