“I think they’re good because people are fighting for what they want especially under this government which is really unfair to people who work so hard for us.”

Whys is unfair though? “I think teachers are obviously an essential job and its a hard job and they’re underpaid compared to other jobs in the commercial sector.”

“I think the same and that people think teaching is a really easy job but its actually horrendously difficult. I     think showing how difficult it is by striking shows that its not as easy as people think it is.”

“I’m in favour. I think its for a good cause. Is it for better pay?”Yes. Do you think its worth it? “I mean it’s one day and mocks aren’t being effected. The exams are still going ahead, so i think in the grand scheme of things, its fine.”

“I think they’re really good. I think the minor inconvenience of some people not having classes is worth it if they get what they’re asking for” Would people that are missing their lessons see it as an inconvenience? Probably but its worth it. It’s not a big deal you missing two of your lessons compared to someone getting severely underpaid for whatever they’re doing”
