Question to the Department for Education:

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, how many teachers went on strike in Lancashire on 5 July 2016.

Of the schools in the North West with a known status, over 80% remained open or partially open to students.

The Department cannot release this information at local authority (LA) level, or the number of teachers who went on strike as this data is provided voluntarily by LAs on the understanding that it will not be published.
