Teachers at top girls' school in Wales hold third day of strike action over pensions dispute

Teachers at a top girls' school in Wales have staged a third day of strike action in a row over pensions.

Around 60 teachers at Howell's School in Llandaff, Cardiff took part in the strike on Cardiff Road and the other entrances to the school on Wednesday, March 2 - the second of three days of action on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday this week following an initial strike last month.

Howell's School is part of the Girls' Day School Trust (GDST), a national organisation comprising 23 mainly single-sex independent schools in England and Wales. The GDST has proposed to withdraw from the Teachers Pension Scheme (TPS), which teachers at the 23 schols have objected to, saying they will lose out on vital pensions later in their careers.
