Chester Zoo has announced that children can visit the attraction for free during this week's teacher strike.
Any school aged children can take advantage of the offer, which runs this Wednesday, February 1, when thousands of teachers will be taking part in industrial action over pay and conditions.
The zoo’s ranger team will be hosting interactive and educational events throughout the day and the initiative is part of the conservation and education charity’s mission to 'inspire a new generation of conservationists, with young people playing a vital role in creating a sustainable future for the planet and its wildlife'.
