Unions have demanded a 10% pay increase but the Scottish Government has offered 5%
Secondary schools across Scotland will be closed as teachers take part in a second day of strike action in a pay dispute on Wednesday.
The latest day of action comes after NASUWT and SSTA members took two days of action in December and EIS members walked out on November 24. On Tuesday, Education Secretary Shirley-Anne Somerville told BBC Radio's Good Morning Scotland programme: "We'll continue discussions with the unions. Striking teachers gathered outside Cosla's headquarters in Edinburgh on Tuesday afternoon where the EIS general secretary accused the local authority umbrella group and the Scottish Government of "Tory tactics" in trying to weaken the strike action. Andrea Bradley told members of the union she was confident of victory in the dispute, but said employers were "dampening aspirations''.
"Overall we have lost 20-25% of the value of our pay since 2008. That's unfair and that's unacceptable."
