Who’s on strike today and how will it affect you? Daily update for January 20

The Metro says Schoolchildren in Scotland will be missing more lessons today as teachers go on strike.

It marks the end of a week of learning disruption, with teachers set to join the picket line again on Monday in a dispute over pay.

In the last month, nurses, doctors, ambulance drivers, rail workers, taxi drivers, civil servants, barristers and bus drivers have all taken industrial action.

The teacher strikes started on Monday, and will continue until February 6.

The Educational Institute of Scotland (EIS) confirmed the dates, which come in addition to a 16-day programme of rolling industrial action set to begin next week.

Two of Scotland’s local authority areas have walked out each day.
