The law could reportedly be changed to force teachers to inform head teachers if they plan to strike.
Education Secretary Gillian Keegan admitted that she was surprised to learn that teachers are not legally bound to let their bosses know whether they planned to turn up to class during industrial action.
She said it was “unreasonable” for teachers to fail to announce their intentions to walk out.
The Daily Mail, quoting a Government source, said ministers could choose to “act” and change the law in a bid to give schools time to put contingency plans in place on strike days.
