A number of schools in the North East are closing due to a teachers' strike on Wednesday.
Members of the National Education Union (NEU) are taking industrial action on February 1 in a dispute over pay, with further walkouts planned in February and March.

However, some schools will need to close, while others will be partially shut. Here's a list of North East schools that we know will be affected so far. We will update this article as more schools announce their intentions.
