A third day of rolling strikes by teachers will hit schools in South Australia today
.. as the Australian Education Union continues its industrial campaign over a pay and
conditions dispute.

The Department of Education and Children's Services says 93 schools will be closed
today because of the half-day stoppage .. with another 21 operating on a modified program.

The strike will target schools in Adelaide's western and inner-southern suburbs ..

as well as on the Eyre Peninsula and in the Riverland.

AEU state president CORRENA HAYTHORPE says teachers are ready to resume negotiations
if the government's serious about making progress in the dispute.
