resources to be able to provide the best education for our children. a lot of schools are struggling to buy glue sticks. we have got lots of children with additional needs in our classroom and we are just not able to provide the support that they need to —— thrive in our classrooms. a lot of it is because of workload. i know teachers work 60 hours plus per week, and it'sjust, it is not maintainable. if things don't mean —— change, the impact on the children will be far greater than missing a day of school because schools cannot continue to run with the finding that they are receiving at the moment. wejust the finding that they are receiving at the moment. we just don't have the resources to be able to provide a better education for our children. teachers are leaving the profession at an alarming rate. this will lead to larger class sizes so children

will not get the support they need. so for us we are striking because we can ensure the best education possible. at the moment with the funding we are getting, its just not possible. let's turn to the rails now and those fresh strikes announced by train drivers in their long—running dispute over pay. one of the strike days will include the day of the fa cup final on the 3rd ofjune according to their union aslef. i'm joined now by our business correspondent theo leggett. tell us what the aslef union is saying? tell us what the aslef union is sa in: ? �* , tell us what the aslef union is sa in: ? ~ , ., tell us what the aslef union is sa in? a ., saying? the aslef union says their latest offer _ saying? the aslef union says their latest offer that _ saying? the aslef union says their latest offer that it _ saying? the aslef union says their latest offer that it is _ saying? the aslef union says their latest offer that it is sad _ saying? the aslef union says their latest offer that it is sad from - saying? the aslef union says their latest offer that it is sad from the | latest offer that it is sad from the rail delivers the —— delivery group which represents in this case 15 train operating companies, that offer it says was visible. we know that the offer included a 4% pay rise backdated from last year, plus another 4% for this year. as well as some changes to working practices.

aslef says that is not good enough, and as a result we have got this —— these three fresh strike dates. there has been massive disruption on the rail network since last summer and aslef has been a part of that. the latest dates of the strike are 12th of may, the day before the eurovision strong contests final in liverpool, so many fans will be trying to get up there, they will face disruption. another strike on the 31st of may and as you mentioned, the 3rd ofjune. that is the date of the fa cup final, which two teams are playing, manchester city and manchester united, so a large number of fans will be trying to get back to london to get to wembley for the final. unfortunately avanti west wembley for the final. unfortunately ava nti west coast wembley for the final. unfortunately avanti west coast which would carry the bulk of those is one of the train companies which is going to be a victim of the strike. so we are expecting to see considerable disruption. expecting to see considerable disruption-_ expecting to see considerable disrution. , , ~ , ., disruption. these strikes on the railwa is disruption. these strikes on the railway is one — disruption. these strikes on the railway is one way _ disruption. these strikes on the railway is one way or— disruption. these strikes on the railway is one way or another. disruption. these strikes on the i railway is one way or another have been going on since last summer. wires are proving so difficult to
