More schools than ever were unable to fully open in England's latest teachers' strike, Department for Education (DfE) data suggests.
Teachers belonging to the National Education Union (NEU) took part in their fifth day of national strike action on Tuesday.

The NEU is considering three further days of strike action in the summer.

- only 45.3% of schools were fully open on Tuesday
- 49.8% were open but restricting attendance
- 4.9% were closed.
