“The Convenor granted a halfholiday to the pupils of this school in recognition of their behaviour during an outbreak of school strikes.”<\/p>\n

In September 1911 thousands of children across wide areas of England, Scotland and Wales became embroiled in a series of strike waves. The first strike occurred on the morning of September 5, 1911, when children left their classrooms of Bigyn School, Llanelli, protesting at the physical punishment of one of their classmates. During the next three weeks, school strikes spread in a rapidly accelerating \u2018wave\u2019, affecting at least 62 town and cities, stretching as far north as Montrose in Scotland and as far south as Portsmouth, involving thousands of children. Reasons for striking ranged from a desire to abolish the cane, less school work, more holidays and payment for school monitors. William Baker, Reflecting Education, April 2010<\/strong><\/p>\n
