Devon schools take part in strike action

Teachers across Devon are joining their national counterparts to take strike action today in protest over what they're calling "damaging" education funding cuts.

The strike by the profession's biggest union - the NUT - is expected to close or disrupt schools across the county.

Members of the National Union of Teachers will join rallies and marches after voting by more than 9-to-1 in favour of industrial action.

Those affected include:-

West Exe School in Exeter

Crediton's Queen Elizabeth’s Academy

Millwater Community School at Honiton

Landscore Primary School near Crediton is partially closed

Exwick Heights Primary School is partially closed.

Stoke Hill Infants School, Exeter, some teachers striking.

Exmouth Community College will be open, but some classes could be affected.
