anyones school
 

striking today ours isn't

My sisters school is. *Nods* But apparently half the teachers aren't doing it... so they have enough teachers to teach 2 school years... so years 7, 8 and 9 get the day off... unfair or what? lol x

grr lol

My sister hasnt school today! she's upset as she suppose to been going on a trip, but apparently she going tomorow instead

Apparently it's only specific teacher unions that are going on strike, so not all teachers will be off...which is sort of good just because all year 11's have got their exams coming up, ands year nines I think - in my sisters school i thin kthey're keeping those years in. Gutted on them.

Brother's school was ¬_¬

Mine didn't by 1 vote.
ONE VOTE.

Our school wasn't off, but a few of my lessons were disrupted.
Out of 3 secondary schools in my town, we were the only school which was not shut.

You have to be part of the NUT to strike today, and plenty aren't, and you don't have to strike even if you are part of the NUT.

The head-teacher decided to keep the school open, and, to be honest, I think that was a pretty good choice. Yeah, a day off school would have been nice, but I want all the lessons I can get with my exams fast approaching.

Year 11 weren't meant to be in until after break but my science teacher wasn't striking and expected us all there first lesson and we all turned up, no teacher second so I did Drama, IT third [which was a joy] "free" fourth, normal 5th. Most of our school day was alright, but a couple of people in year 9 and 10 struggled, as most of their teachers were striking.

I didn't mind too much, meant we got an extra hour to finish our Drama performance, our exam is next week:O

Yeahhh mine was
I went in for an hour though

my school did but year 11 && 6th form still had to go in.
which is me.
but i didnt come first lesson.
if i did i would have had head teacher twice that day. arggh
i had here last && she hates me she has her reasons.
but the feeling mutual.
I HATE COVER TEACHERS!

It's only teachers in the NUT that are striking. In my school 40 teachers are members but I think 30 of the went on strike. Only had one lesson messed up but years 7,8 and 9 got teh day off. Grr *kick* 10,11+6th form had to go in (which includes me). Though I went round to my boyfs house who's mum had given him the day off for first period cos I cba with PE :)

my lessons were cancelled.

My school remained open only for Year 11, 12 and 13, because of our exams coming up very soon, which I think is very thoughtful of them. And anyway, my teachers are all heads of their departments so you know. Ka-Ching and all that, they never strike.

A few of our teahers went on strike, none of mine though.
That being said, years 11, 12 & 13 had to be in regardless. *shrugs*

Yep, I got the whole day off today
It was just year 8 and year 10 (my year) that got the day off though :)

11, 12 and 13 had "optional revision sessions" that were compulsary, but i didnt bother going in anyway

How can something 'optional' be compulsory :P lols at the teacher that thought that one up.

Basically its legally optional
but theyre gonna killme tomorrow for not turning up :p

i had today off =]

My english teacher did :)
So I had the afternoon off.
Abit poo that they struck 2/3 weeks before our exams though :(
