Unionised secondary teachers who say kids' needs aren't being met in school will strike next week, nationwide.

They'll step away from the job next Wednesday after rejecting a three percent pay increase over three years.

The PPTA says experienced teachers will be crucial to successfully rolling out proposed Government NCEA reforms.

President Chris Abercrombie says the teachers introduced a counter-offer, but it's up to the Government to do their part.
