Teachers’ vote on potential strikes to conclude today in Reykjavik

Teachers’ vote on strikes will conclude at noon today. If approved, the strikes will begin at the end of the month. The teachers’ association has been noncommittal about which schools will be affected, but Magnus Thor Jonsson, the chairman, indicated that the information will be announced at noon alongside the voting results.

The planned strikes are set to be temporary for elementary and high schools, while they will be indefinite at preschools. Reports from a parents’ association at Laugalækjaskóli in Reykjavik suggest there are rumors indicating that this school may be among those affected. However, Magnus Thor refrained from confirming this information.
