The EIS and its members support the Scottish Government’s aim of keeping schools open, but not at all costs. The safety of pupils and staff has to be the priority. #NotAtAllCosts

[EIS @EISUnion]

The EIS has launched a new campaign #NotAtAllCosts highlighting teachers’ deep concern about school buildings remaining physically open even in areas of Scotland with high levels of the virus. Find out more here: https://t.co/KnM1HteFa7

Just for absolute clarity, nothing the Prime Minister said tonight affects when schools return in Scotland. I am working with Local Authorities, Directors of Education, Teaching Unions and Parents to agree a way forward for Scotland. #StayHomeSaveLives

We want to hear if children are having difficulty accessing online learning, perhaps due to no internet access or digital device.

You may receive a text message from us with a survey next week & we'd appreciate it if you could complete it so we can provide assistance

Teachers need our support, encouragement, empathy and understanding, not criticism

Shamelessly stealing this from @InverclydeEIS
Today's home learning task is to set your 'out of office' to a polite 'I'm on holiday' & then SWITCH OFF.
This is always a long term & this year it, and you, has been exceptional. Take a break.

Happy retirement day, Mrs Gold! 💖A brilliant teacher, super tidier and organiser, great @EISUnion rep and a member of the #stronggirlsclub without a doubt! We will all miss you! 💞

Morning, all! Please remember that in these strange times the normal rules of professional engagement with parents and pupils apply: school email addresses and school mobile numbers only, please 👍

Stay safe.
