Children and parents face more disruption this week as teachers in England go on strike again in a long-running dispute over pay.
Sports days, school trips and transition days for pupils are set to be disrupted as a result of the walkouts by teacher members of the National Education Union (NEU) today (Wednesday), with another day of action planned for Friday.
It is the seventh day individual schools in England have faced walkouts by NEU teacher members this year.
Here are the schools affected by the strikes in York today and on Friday.

Education union leaders have warned that further strike action in the autumn term is likely if the ongoing pay dispute remains unresolved.
The Government offered teachers a £1,000 one-off payment for the current school year (2022/23) and an average 4.5% rise for staff next year after intensive talks with the education unions earlier this year.
But all four education unions involved in the dispute rejected the offer and the decision on teachers’ pay in England for next year has been passed to the independent School Teachers’ Review Body (STRB).
There are fears that pupils could miss out on end-of-year activities – including concerts, school trips, sports days and opportunities to meet new classmates – during the two strike days this week.
