Schools across Merseyside are set to fully or partly shut on Wednesday due to a major strike by teachers.
The National Education Union is holding a national round of walk-outs in a row with the government over pay and conditions. Many primary and secondary schools across our region will be impacted by the strike action with either full or partial closures.
Many schools are undergoing partial closures in a bid to stay open for certain year groups. Staff are not compelled to tell headteachers whether or not they intend to strike. This means that many schools are still finalising decisions.
