Two frustrated teachers say they and their colleagues are 'burnt out' and 'fed up' as they begin a fresh day of strike action. Teachers across Greater Manchester are walking out of work today - for the fifth day of strike action in a long-running dispute.
The National Education Union (NEU) and government are in a stalemate in a row about pay. Today's industrial action follows four days of walk-outs.
The Education Secretary, Gillian Keegan, has called the move 'extremely disappointing'. However, teachers have told the Manchester Evening News that the argument is not actually about the amount of pay - rather how it will be funded.
