300K Teachers Strike in UK

ENGLAND – Some 300,000 teachers across England launched another wave of strikes due to an ongoing dispute over pay.

Teachers, who are members of the National Education Union – Europe’s largest education union – say they will also hold industrial action on July 7.

The NEU has held five national and three regional strike days this year.

UK’s Education Secretary, Gillian Keegan, says ongoing strikes are ‘undermining the stability’ of children’s education.
