All schools will open tomorrow as ASTI strike is suspended

There has been a breakthrough in the teachers' dispute.

The union involved, the ASTI, has accepted an invitation to talks with the Teachers' Conciliation Council.

ASTI members will be available for teaching and supervision and substitution duties tomorrow and for the duration of the talks.

Teachers representatives say they now expect that all second-level schools will be open tomorrow.

Around 500 schools were closed today due to the ASTI action.

The disputes centre on pay scales for new entrants, and for payment for supervision and substitution duties.
