Thousands of schools will shut on Wednesday as a mass walkout threatens to grind Britain to a halt.

Teachers who are members of the National Education Union are walking out in the first of seven strikes planned across England and Wales.

They are demanding a better pay rise than the 5% offered by the Department for Education and want something aboe the rate of inflation.

The union estimates that about 85% of schools will be shut because of the strikes. Teachers will be among 500,000 workers including civil servants and train drivers to walk out.

Here's how to check if your school is shut.
