Striking teachers have said education is in a crisis that “can’t go on any longer” as they stage a second day of action across Liverpool.
Teachers and staff from schools across the city left their classrooms for the second time this month as members of the National Education Union took part in industrial action over pay and conditions. Staff stood with placards outside their schools that read “Fund the Future” and “Striking for Students.”
Outside Abbots Lea School in Woolton, one person was seen dressed as a dinosaur holding up a sign that said “Make no bones about it school pay is prehistoric.” One teacher told the ECHO there had been no progress on the pay dispute while others said the sector was facing further issues around recruitment.
