A date has been announced
Members of the EIS voted overwhelmingly to back action in a result announced on Thursday, saying just hours later the first walkout will take place in a fortnight.
“But with a pay rise for teachers now more than seven months late, and with the last pay offer having been rejected by teachers almost three months ago, the blame for this move to strike action sits squarely with Cosla and the Scottish Government. She said: “This will never be acceptable to Scotland’s teachers or to the EIS, and that is why Scotland’s teachers will be taking strike action two weeks from today.”Secretary Shirley-Anne Somerville said: “The Scottish Government and Scottish local government value the teaching workforce.
“Strikes in our schools are in no-one’s interest – least of all for pupils, parents and carers who have already faced significant disruption over the past three years.” “Along with Scottish Government, we are working closely and at pace to ensure a revised offer can be brought forward. We will remain in active discussions with our trade union partners.”
“Pupils missing yet more classroom time is the last thing they need after the disruption they had to endure during the pandemic.”
