👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 disappointed by my union’s decision not to stand in solidarity with other trade unions in continuing strike action this week; I decided to join @NASUWT_Scotland on Friday evening. I refuse to accept a pay rise on the backs of the sacrifices being made by my colleagues.
If you have a child who is affected by the targeted strike action, we ask you to contact Govt leaders, urging them to compromise & find a solution to the current dispute. A model text, provided by an EIS member, is available on our website

A phenomenal turnout at the East Renfrewshire rally. Teachers do not want to be on strike, but are taking strike action as a last resort in their pursuit of a fair pay deal. #PayAttention#EISStrike
For anyone who missed it or thought they were hearing things watching ‘Sunday with Laura Kuenssberg’ on 22 January, here’s a quick recap and correction! #PayAttention#EISStrike
It is disappointing, though not surprising, that no new offer was presented today, despite some progress in discussions. The union side remains willing to talk, at any time, with a view to reaching a resolution to this dispute. #PayAttention#EISStrike

The first decline in the number of teachers employed across Scotland in 5 years is cause for concern. This is particularly acute in the Primary sector, where the decline in the number of teachers has seen the ratio of pupils per teacher increase

The current offer is an average of 5.07% and is not enough to end this dispute. The Scottish Government and COSLA must #PayAttention and come back to the negotiating table with a significantly improved offer.
