Thousands of secondary school students will be at home this morning as schools wait to hear if industrial action will continue this week or not.

But the secondary teacher union PPTA has yet to decide what it will do.
So, in the meantime, that means schools will continue to ask thousands of students to stay home.
Sacred Heart college in Auckland Principal Patrick Walsh spoke to Corin Dann.
