I could see some groups where a ban on strikes could be reasonable. Police, fire brigade, and ambulance come to mind. Even then though, it should be controls, not absolute. e.g. fire brigade have to give the army time to mobilise and prepare to cover for them. Teachers are not one of them. An absolute ban is just an invitation to drive work conditions into the floor, and cripple the service...
