£840 financial reimbursements per student affected by staff strikes at Bangor University.

The Issue

We would like Bangor University to reimburse all students for teaching and learning time lost due to the planned strikes. Alternatively, we would like the University to listen to lecturer and student demands and work with the UCU to find an amicable solution to the 'pension pot problem', that staff are planning to strike about.

We're being denied our education by the strikes taking place and therefore feel that we should be compensated, by Bangor University, for that.

Based on £9,000 a year tuition fees, with the strike lasting the full 14 days, students are set to lose £840 each (£300 paid for every 5 day week). With approximately 11,000 students across the Bangor and Wrexham Campus, this equates to the university paying out roughly £9,240,000.
