Thousands of teachers are walking out today as the dispute with government continues

Thousands of teachers have once again taken to the picket line for another strike day. Following previous action last month, staff are walking out today, Thursday, April 27, and again on Tuesday, May 2.

"I have seen an increase in teachers taking industrial action as a result of the government’s latest pay offer," he said. "They are completely fundamental to the running of the school," he said. "TAs support pupils, run intervention and booster groups. They support teachers, they are completely vital - and undervalued."

"Her petulant response has been to walk away from any further discussion, which represents a slap-in-the-face to the profession and a gratuitous insult to parents who are still strongly behind the campaign for better school funding and a resolution to the recruitment and retention crisis for the sector.
