Teachers are going on strike again on Tuesday as they continue their fight for a better pay deal from the Government.
Members of the National Education Union (NEU) walked out last week as well as taking strike action in February and March. The latest walkout is on Tuesday, May 2, as the dispute continues.
The Government has previously offered teachers a £1,000 one-off payment for the current school year (2022/23) and an average 4.5% pay rise for staff next year following intensive talks with education unions. However, four unions - the NEU, the NASUWT teaching union, the National Association of Head Teachers (NAHT) and the Association of School and College Leaders (ASCL) - rejected the pay offer.
