When class war reached the classrooms
Looks back at the nationwide schoolchildren's strike of September 1911, when working-class children imitated the actions of their parents in taking industrial action in face of unemployment. The 1911 strike included use of organised pickets and marches, and the children's complaints were about corporal punishment and excessive work. There had already been a wave of strikes in 1889, and unrest recurred in 1914, 1929, and 1938, with later examples in 1968, 2003 and 2010.
