Wrexham: Darland High School teachers' strike on 30 June and 1 July 2026

NEU Cymru's remaining strike action at Darland High School was still scheduled for 30 June and 1 July 2026 in the latest available union update, and those dates have now passed. Based on the current record and no credible fresh reports of cancellation or suspension for NEU, the strike is best treated as completed.

One of the two unions involved, **NASUWT**, has called off its strike action at Darland High School to allow talks with the school and Wrexham County Borough Council, following the appointment of an interim headteacher. **NEU** members are still striking on **30 June and 1 July 2026**, so the school cannot fully open: pupils in **Years 8, 9 and 10** are asked to stay home, while other year groups attend as normal.

Latest reporting indicates the dispute is continuing as planned. Teachers at Darland High School in Wrexham took the first strike day on 23 June 2026, and credible reports published on 23-25 June say further strike action is still scheduled for 30 June and 1 July 2026, with the school expected to close again. No credible source found evidence that the strike was canceled, suspended, resumed, extended, escalated, or otherwise changed.
