yeah i saw that on yahoo news, it said 1 day strike on the 28th april.
LOL.
what you mean?
you go back for three days, then what?
Most probably every school in the country will. Its teachers strike all over?
''Around 200,000 teachers will stage a one-day strike over pay following the Government's refusal to improve a 2.45 per cent offer.''
Only for teachers in NUT some are not. Our school is closed because 30 teachers are striking. Also the other teachers have been told by their union not to cover classes for teachers not in. Therefore the head has decided to close the school.
lol.
When my school was going to close,
All the students actually went on strike. XD

My Sixth Form is taught by the teachers who teach the juniors and most are in the NUT. I'm not sure about whether we'll be closing because we have close to 120 teachers so... it depends on how many are in the NUT I guess.
Thinking about it - I think most of my teachers are in NASUWT not NUT.
In our school on a few of the teachers are going on strike therefore our school is staying open :(
28th april? i have my drama final exam on that day i think... crap.
LOL mint! well.. not mint cos if my school keeps the sixth form open, I'll scream. But im glad it isnt when my exams are. Cos they would have got moved forwards or something crap like that and made me scream even more lol. but 28th april ooo yay
Its the 24th of April not the 28th.
My school is closing on that day except to year 11, 12 and 13, which means I still have to go in. :(:@. But, the letter I got said that teachers who aren't going on strike can't cover lessons for other teacher, but the senior management still can which is why it is open for some of us.
i hope my school doesnt close
i havent heard anything
but i know my little brothers is closing
Staff on strike on 24th or 28th dunno which one.
Or different date.
I think there's a strike but we still have to go into school or something lol
its the 24th. nuff teachers in my college will be going on strike, and i have a french oral exam on that day lmao. so if it does happen, it will be moved to the monday after :D.
but atm, we dont know if college will be closed or not yet.
i don't know if we have but i hope not.
I have still two weeks off but i also when we go back we have somedays off but only two years are staying open:eusa_danc
God i wish it was the 29th, coz then id get to play GTA IV all day :D
NUT wot a stupid name
doesnt affect me cos I dont go to school
and also what do teachers expect? If you are in the public service section you can expect rubbish pay
