Do you think primary teachers and principals should be striking? Thousands of teachers have taken industrial action on Wednesday, with dozens of rallies planned around the country. They aim to gain attention for better pay, conditions and incentives to attract new teachers. Although about 30,000 people in the profession are involved in the strike, not everyone agrees with it.
So, what are your thoughts on the strike? Do you think teachers deserve better pay? Or should they have stayed around the negotiating table for longer? Are you a teacher or parent with views on the topic? Let us know in the replies!

Surely "Education is the doorway to the future". The government states that they have no more money. What do businesses do when they wish to invest for their future profitability - they borrow. Let us tell them its okay to borrow if we are investing in our children's future. The alternative is greater unemployment in the future. What do you want?
