Question
What assessment has the Minister made of the potential for industrial action from teachers who strongly disagree with plans to reform the school holidays?
Answer
Answered by Minister for Education and the Welsh Language
At this stage I am focussed on the Consultation on the School Year, which was published on 21 November and will run for 12 weeks, closing on 12 February 2024. We would not wish to prejudge the findings of the consultation and it is important we hear the views of the education workforce, teaching unions, learners, families, businesses, and the wider community.
