Teachers are taking part in the action

Teachers are taking part in the action on Thursday over Government plans to make changes to their pensions.

William Allitt School, in Sunnyside, Newhall, will be closed completely to students.
Head teacher David Clark said: “The school will be closed for students on Thursday June 30.

“All students will be expected to attend school on Friday, July 1 at the normal time.” Abbot Beyne School, in Winshill, revealed that certain year groups would be affected and parents were being informed by text messages and letters.

A statement from de Ferrers Academy read ‘Industrial action by some members of unions will be taking place at the academy and as soon as we have more details, a letter will be sent home to parents’.

Paget High School, in Burton Road, Branston, will be open, but some children will be asked to come in late and some will leave early.
Pingle School, in Coronation Street, Swadlincote, has revealed that year 12 students should attend school as usual and years 11 and 13 are unaffected.

A small number of year nine children will be attending mentor training on that day and they should attend as usual, wearing school uniform.

The remaining pupils in years seven to 10 should not attend on this day.
Ivanhoe College, in Ashby, will be shut entirely to students, whereas Burton and South Derbyshire College will remain open.

Wendy Sharp, head teacher of John Port Academy, in Etwall, said in a letter to parents that a decision on whether to close the school or cancel classes might not be taken until the day before the industrial action.
Paulet High School, in Stapenhill, will see some children missing ‘a few lessons but nothing more’.

As the Mail went to press, Blessed Robert Sutton, in Stapenhill, Granville Community School, in Woodville and John Taylor High School had not yet revealed details of what impact the industrial action would have.
