It's their first national strike over pay in almost 40 years
The action by members of the Educational Institute of Scotland is expected to close the majority of schools around the country.
Speaking after the offer was rejected, Ms Bradley said: "Teachers overwhelmingly rejected a 5% offer more than three months ago and now, after months of prevarication and weeks of empty promises, Cosla and the Scottish Government come back with an offer that is worth that same 5% to the vast majority of teachers."
Members of the Communication Workers Union at the Royal Mail will also strike on Thursday and on Black Friday as industrial unrest continues to spread across the country. Royal Mail says it has made its "best and final offer" aimed at resolving the dispute, including "extensive improvements" made during negotiations with the CWU, such as an enhanced pay deal of up to 9% over 18 months, offering to develop a new profit share scheme for employees, and making voluntary redundancy terms more generous.
