The Department of Education reported a 9.32% turnout for the teachers' strike in Alt Pirineu i l'Aran, Ponent, and Central Catalonia as of March 18.

This marks the third day of rotating regional strikes organized to demand better working conditions beyond the current agreement between the Government and the CCOO and UGT unions. Data was collected from 31.55% of schools by 9:30 AM.
The turnout in these northern and central regions is slightly higher than Monday's figures in Barcelona (7.05%) but lower than Tuesday's participation in Tarragona and Penedès, which reached 11.22%.
