I can think of worse things a teacher could do ;-) ;-) ;-)

If going on strike never inconvenienced anyone they would be pretty ineffectual, wouldn't they?
That is surely the whole point of striking!
It is about time teachers got a better deal.

Sadly, those expectations are all too often somewhat lacking.

Teachers are bound to do their utmost towards fulfilling the students’ expectations.

Mind you, I wouldn't facy the job whatever the pay.

I think it a shame that they need to strike to taken seriously, I for one could not afford to lose a days pay but would if I really had to.
As you say plenty of time to sort something out.

Conference also said that if a member felt the need to be present for a public exam, they should/could continue to do so.

Although most subjects will have been sat by 20 June, there a few timetabled for w/c 23 June

For all those whingers who (misguidedly) seem to think it is unfair, teachers, in all likelihood, will be striking in June - week commencing 23rd.
That should provide ample notice to make alternative arrangements.
