Most students at Uckfield Community Technology College will get an extra day off today (Thursday) because of strike action by members of two teaching unions.
It is part of a nationwide dispute involving members of the National Union of Teachers (NUT) and the Association of Teachers and Lecturers (ATL).
They are in dispute with the government over changes to pensions arrangements.
