Teachers across Scotland are set to walkout next month in a dispute over pay and condition, it has been announced.
The Scottish Secondary Teachers' Association (SSTA) members were balloted for strike action after rejecting a 5 per cent pay offer, and 90 per cent voted for strike action on a turnout of 62 per cent.
The SSTA said that members in some local authority areas will strike on Wednesday, December 7 while others will walk out on Thursday December 8. Members of Scotland's largest teaching union, the EIS, are also due to take strike action on Thursday, November 24.
