Some parents will be forced to take leave from work as schools close during the first day of teacher strikes in England and Wales.
Hundreds of thousands of workers – including school teachers – are going on strike for what will be the biggest day of industrial action in more than a decade.
The NEU is estimating that around 85% of schools in England and Wales will be fully or partially closed on Wednesday. Thousands of Environment Agency workers are also expected to strike on February 8 in a dispute over pay. The NEU is required by law to provide schools with the number of members that it is calling on to take strike action in each workplace, but the union does not have to provide the names of members.
Liverpool City Council is expecting 38% of schools to be closed, with 54% only partially open, based on returns from 130 of around 160 schools in the city.
