Teachers represented by the trade union NEU will strike on 2 March in London, the South-East and the South-West. Many schools in London will be closed or functioning with reduced capacity on this date. 

There may also be strikes during the week of 13 March. 

Each school will decide individually whether they will be able to stay open whilst strike action is ongoing. Some of them will close, while others could remain open to particular groups or vulnerable pupils. 

As usual, your school will let you know directly if affected. If your school is open, it’s important that you still send your child to attend. 

Visit the Hackney Council’s website for the latest information about school closures, where we know them.
