“It’s not anything that any member of staff… would be choosing to do”

“I think they actually deserve a big pay rise”

The #bbcdn audience share their thoughts on strikes set to close Perth and Kinross schools, as @michaeljmarra says he supports the rights of workers to strike

An education union has called on the First Minister of Scotland to take action on the 'lack of job security' among newly qualified teachers.

"An overall decrease in teacher numbers...coupled with the biggest drop in post-probation employment in over a decade, points to a deeply troubled landscape in the staffing of education as a vital public service." - EIS General Secretary Andrea Bradley

The FM says in her @BBClauraK interview that since 2018, teachers have had more than 20% increase in their salary.
Wrong.
Since 2018, teachers received a 13% uplift (2018-21), and a 2.2% uplift in 2021-22. No uplift has been paid in 2022-23.

[EIS @EISUnion]

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

Rishi Sunak's new anti-union legislation means when workers democratically vote to strike, they could be forced to work and sacked if they don’t. Join the campaign to protect the right to strike. https://t.co/uO3Ix6gXE6 via @megaphoneuk

‘Once again I’ve had many teachers asking me if they can use my children’s stories to make online videos for their pupils during lockdown. The answer is YES! Please go ahead & use my books in whatever way you want. I am delighted that they will be enjoyed.’ David x

.@JohnSwinney has announced that every probationer teacher, who has met the standards for registration, will be given a teaching post for at least the next year. Great news for those who haven't secured permanent/temporary contracts!

@BBCScotlandNews Shocking the amount of work that has gone into the blended learning model and now abandoned on a political whim. And they get round it by saying it "could" happen. Was a very different story and mixed messages 10 days or so ago. So poorly handled
