Nico Bhula: Hillcrest High Head Student on the call for the Government to end the teacher strikes

Students are calling on the Government to end teacher strikes.

A group of Waikato school leaders have signed an open letter to the Education Minister.

Secondary teachers are currently refusing to teach two year levels each day, four days a week for the rest for term.

It comes after they refused their latest collective agreement offer.

Hillcrest High Head Student Nico Bhula told Heather du Plessis Allan that they're on the teachers side.

He says people are angry at the teachers, believing that it’s their choice, but they believe the Government needs to come to the conversation and pay up.
