Teacher strikes: What parents need to know

Teachers in England and Wales have voted to take strike action - but what does it mean for parents?

Can't wait- we like the time off🤣

Shock horror, teachers going on strike... again. Who knew that would happen !!

Can we send them a fine

Why are you not reporting on tax dodging nadhimzahawi

Seen lots of ballots over my 20 years but never like this. Conservatives are meant to understand market forces but seem to ignore them when they choose. There aren't enough teachers because the pay and working conditions are inadequate.

Surprise surprise, I wondered how long it would be before they jumped on the bad wagon.

That the people who look after their children, educate them, prepare them for life. Whilst also working overtime almost everyweek arent being paid enough, and want greater and more equal pay for their labour? That what they need to know?

They're happening?

Shocking !!!!!!!

Where is your story on Nadhim Zahawi?! Why are you hiding this?!
