Planned strikes for teachers all across England have been called off after the union accepted a 6.5 per cent pay rise.

Teachers in England are to stage fresh strikes in July amid their long-running dispute over pay.

Teachers' leaders today issued a last-ditch plea for crunch talks with ministers to avert this week’s strike.

A teaching union has recommended to its members to reject a new pay offer from the Education Secretary which it labels 'insulting'. The National Education Union has put this recommendation to its members in a ballot, which could lead to more strike action.

Teachers’ leaders said schools should consider cancelling sports day events to protect pupils and staff while a heatwave warning is in place next week. The Met Office has issued an amber warning of 'extreme heat' from Sunday, July 17, to Tuesday, July 19, with temperatures expected to climb to 34C in Greater Manchester and 35C in the South East.

Secondary pupils will no longer have to wear masks in classrooms, the Prime Minister has announced.
