Teachers will join thousands of other public servants taking industrial action tomorrow and parents are being warned to make alternative care plans for the day.

NSW's public school teachers and principals are walking off the job tomorrow, the first time in a decade such statewide industrial action has been taken.

Teachers Federation president Angelo Gavrielatos said staff shortages were creating unsustainable workloads. At the same time there's been a 30 per cent drop in young people entering initial teacher education and a 50 per cent drop out rate.Teachers say more resignations are inevitable due to the pressures of the job.

The action comes after 18 months of negotiations over a pay deal, and the Education Minister Sarah Mitchell said it was disappointing to see teachers going ahead with the strike while talks were underway.
