Thousands of teachers could be set to walk off the job as the National Education Union prepares to announce the result of a strike ballot today.
Members of the Educational Institute of Scotland union are beginning 16 days of rolling strike action today, with teachers in two of Scotland's 32 local authority areas walking out each day until 6 February. The action is going ahead after talks on Thursday involving the Scottish government, local authority leaders and teaching unions failed to resolve the issue.
