School strikes in Wales are still set to go ahead next week as unions say they haven't received an offer from the Welsh Government similar to that offered to NHS workers.
Planned strikes by nurses, midwives, physiotherapists and one of the ambulance unions was called off today after the Welsh Government offered staff in the health services an extra 3% - half as a one-off payment and half added to their base salary.
But WalesOnline understands that no such offer has yet been made to the teaching unions and there are currently no planned talks between the Welsh Government and teaching unions. It's understood ministers in Wales have made an offer of a one off payment estimated to be worth "a few hundred pound" per person but that is far lower than offered to health workers.
