It is the sixth time that members of the National Education Union (NEU) are taking industrial action with more strikes set to take place on Friday (July 7). 

The union is also re-balloting its members to seek continued support for strike action in the autumn term.

Members of the National Association of Head Teachers (NAHT) and the NASUWT are also being re-balloted in England, after neither union reached the required threshold to hold strikes earlier in the year.
