Union leader asks members to go on strike over conditions
TEACHERS’ workloads are “simply not sustainable", a union chief has warned as she urged strike action over class contact time.
The SNP pledged in its manifesto ahead of the 2021 election to reduce contact time to 21 hours per week.
But EIS general secretary Andrea Bradley said the government has “delivered absolutely nothing”.
The EIS has opened a statutory ballot for industrial action, with the union pushing for teachers to back both strike action and action short of a strike.
The Scottish Government said it is “disappointed” the ballot has been opened.
