after Ministry of Education and teachers' union fail to reach agreement
A full 'mega' strike of teachers will go ahead as planned on Thursday after a meeting between the Government and the union representing primary school teachers failed to reach an agreement.
More than 800,000 students from preschool to Year 13 will be impacted but some schools have applied for exemptions.
In 2019, more than 50,000 teachers went on strike. And there will be similar scenes on Thursday, as a similar number plan to take to the streets again.
Parents and students are bracing for the disruption.
