Teachers strikes are set to go ahead this month after crunch talks between unions and the Education Secretary today failed to break the deadlock.
The National Education Union (NEU) will press on with looming walkouts unless they get a better pay deal, while other unions are considering re-balloting their members.
Teaching unions held talks with Gillian Keegan to resolve the bitter pay dispute, which has already led to a national strike this month where the majority of schools in England were affected.
