Classrooms shut to whole year groups as teachers strike at Swansea school

A school is partially shut today (Wed May 17) after teachers walked out over what they said were adverse management practices affecting their health and working conditions. Members of Nasuwt teachers’ union at Gendros Primary School in Swansea are taking the first of 11 days of planned strike action.

The school is shut to pupils in some year groups as a result of the walk out, Swansea Council confirmed.
