Members of the NASUWT union in Scotland will join a national strike on 28 February and 1 March.
The latest talks over teachers' pay have broken up without agreement, as another union announces new strike dates.The largest teaching union in Scotland, the EIS, has already announced nationwide strikes on those dates, in both primaries and secondaries.Shirley-Anne Somerville added: "Dialogue remains focused on potential areas for compromise in bringing this dispute to an end - rather than tabling a new offer at this time.
Mike Corbett, NASUWT national official Scotland, said: "We have been clear to Scottish government and Cosla that with CPI inflation still at 10.5% - more than double the 5% pay award which most of Scotland's teachers were offered - a substantially improved pay offer which is fully funded by the Scottish government must be tabled without delay.
The EIS union is currently staging a rolling series of strikes in two local authorities per day, until 6 February.
