Three parents share their views on the strike by tens of thousands of teachers in England and Wales
More than 100,000 teachers in England and Wales are taking part in a strike organised by the UK’s largest education union. The UK education secretary, Gillian Keegan, claimed that the majority of schools in England and Wales would remain open. The National Education Union predicted that 85% of schools would be affected, with one survey suggesting that up to one in seven schools would be closed, rising to a quarter in London.
Here, three parents discuss how they and their children are being affected by the strike and their views on the action.
