The head of Alfreton Grange College has highlighted the 'real impact' strike action by staff could have on pupils at the school.

In a statement, Executive Head Teacher Chris James noted that learning time for students would be lost as a result of the strike.

The school has previously justified extending the school day by pointing out that it gives students more learning time and help improve examinations results.
