The teachers' strike is set to close or partially close about 7,500 schools in England and Wales.
Warnings to parents from 117 local authorities - two thirds of the total - so far show that 31% of schools are expected to face disruption.
The one-day pay strike is being staged on Thursday by members of the National Union of Teachers.
Children's Secretary Ed Balls, opposing the walk-out, says "the majority of teachers do not want to strike".
Schools have been alerting parents to anticipated closures and loss of lessons - with more than 5,000 schools already set to be disrupted in a survey of 117 local authorities.
