CITY VIEWS: JUST HOW DESTRUCTIVE WILL THE TEACHERS’ STRIKE BE FOR PARENTS?
STEVE MARSHALL | HW WOOD LTD
“I don’t agree with the teachers striking, however it’s relatively good timing as it’s after the exam period. The idea of parents taking over classes is ridiculous as it disrupts the parents’ working day.”
CHRIS MARTIN | PRICE FORBES & PARTNERS
“I think it is quite destructive. Parents won’t be able to go in and teach the children because they are out of touch with modern teaching. I am always against strikes. They should be banned.”
JOHN BRENNAN | PEAKE & COMPANY
“The teachers planning to strike need to get some sense and recognise how well off they are already. I don’t have a lot of sympathy for them. The idea of parents filling in for the teachers is madness.”
