Teachers at a private school in the north of Oslo have been on strike since 18 March. The 17 teachers at the Heltberg upper secondary school went on strike after the school management refused to renew the existing collective agreement. The teachers were members of the Union of Education Norway (UEN). The strike came to an end after the employer agreed on 10 April to the teachers’ demand for a collective agreement.
