WA teachers' strike expected to disrupt more than 80 schools

More than 80 schools across Western Australia are set to be affected by a planned half-day strike by teachers tomorrow.

The state’s Department of Education said the stop-work action would begin at the start of the school day.

It is expected that teachers will be back in the classroom ready to teach at 12.30pm (AWST), except for teachers in the Pilbara and Kimberley who will return to teaching at 11:30am.

More than 80 schools across Western Australia are set to be affected by a planned half-day strike by teachers tomorrow.

“During this time, adequate duty of care may not be able to be provided,” the Department of Education said on its website.

Teachers are taking action to push for a 12 per cent pay increase over the next two years.

The government has offered an 11 per cent pay increase over three years.
