@bazzacollins They do get statutory annual leave like anyone, which is 5.6 weeks a year.
Note the teachers only announce their plan to strike today because they've been off for the PAST SIX WEEKS.

@bohemiangirl They get 13 weeks of paid holiday a year. -
@bazzacollins Nor should they be bashed over the head with some conservative knee jerk reaction for fighting for their rights & conditions. -
@bohemiangirl There are plenty - both public- and private-sector - who are worse paid, with worse pensions than teachers. -
@bazzacollins But that is spurious logic. If others are worse off that doesn't limit their own possibilities, or anyone's.

@bazzacollins So this is their first opportunity to go on strike for six weeks. Your point is? (-: -
@vulturemedia My point is largely facetious, as always. But actually when it comes to pay, pensions and workload, there are many worse off.
