Many Italian teachers and other
school personnel are staging a one-day strike on Monday with a
rally taking place in Rome's Piazza Santi Apostoli.
Unions called the strike to protest against job cuts, the
mechanisms used to recruit new staff, issues regarding training
and the failure to give permanent jobs to many teachers working
on temporary contracts.
The unions say they expect the turnout for the strike to be
high.
The union representing Italy's school principals has come out
against the strike.
