80+ Western Australian public schools partially close or strike due to teacher protest of government's "insulting" pay offer.

80+ public schools in Western Australia will partially close or strike on Tuesday, as teachers protest an "insulting" pay offer from the government. Education Director-General Lisa Rodgers expects the majority of schools to remain open despite the action, with some providing instruction for selected year levels. Concerns have been raised over student safety and adequate duty of care in schools with fewer teachers available.
