Israeli high school students are continuing their strike in a modified version this week to protest the ongoing walkout by driving license examiners across the country.
Students in five cities are protesting the weeks’ old decision, as well as a slowdown by the Teachers’ Union that has halted field trips and extra-curricular activities.
The job action by teachers comes as part of a wrestling match between the union and the Ministry of Education.
Students plan to rotate the strike around the country, shutting down classrooms in five cities per day, in order not to disrupt preparation for the end-of-year bagrut (matriculation) exams.
