Hide AdA spokesman for the National Union of Teachers (NUT) said: “The strike is part of the campaign to protect pay, pensions and to ensure a workload that means children receive the best possible teaching.
“The strike follows a series of regional strikes in the autumn, which were very well supported and saw teachers getting a lot of support from parents.”
Any further school closures due to strike action will be reported on the Mercury website.
