Which schools are closed during the Scottish teachers' strike?

The biggest Scottish teachers' strike in decades brought learning to a standstill on Thursday.

Industrial action by the Educational Institute of Scotland (EIS) and the Association of Head Teachers and Deputes Scotland (AHDS) over pay saw almost all primary and secondary schools closed on 24 November.

Talks to avert the strikes failed to come up with an improved pay deal.

EIS members have rejected an offer of up to 6.85%, saying they wanted 10%.

Each Scottish council has made its own arrangements for the strike action.
