There will be a one-day strike.

Thousands of children and parents across Wiltshire could face disruption due to a teachers' strike next Thursday.

The one-day strike has been called by the NUT and NASUWT over a number of disputes, including wages, pensions and working hours, and headteachers will be making decisions on whether to stay open or not based on the number of union members in their schools.

Parents are advised to contact their schools for individual updates but there will be updates on Wiltshire Council’s website at www.wiltshire.gov.uk
