Our school is notoriously bad at communication and we have no idea if school is going to be closed next thurs. Bit late to let us know I feel and kids are off til monday so won't find out til then. Really bad if you have to arrange childcare. A few ppl i have talked to know nothing about any strike

I don't know about DS's school - must remember to check (would be embarassing to take him to school on Thursday if it was closed)

My DCs school is shut, a letter went out on Friday afternoon before they broke up.

So DS1 gets the day off, and DS2 has to go to school. There was much unseemly rejoicing amongst the older siblings in that class today! DS2 is gutted.

arghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

there was me leaping for joy as th little kiddies schools are open.....

older girls school is on strike!!!

after all the ranting letters we have had from them about 'time off school before the SAT's', bloody cheek I say giving them time off!!!

Phew, big poster on the gate, dS's school will be open. I support the teachers but still 'phew'. Election day plus strike day, and the fact that DS will be off for surgery from half term onwards would mean he would hardly be in school at all. And I can't take any more days off. !

I Would have sent DS round to be looked after by his friend's Dad who will be on strike from a diferent school, I think!
