Teachers hold a pivotal role in shaping the future of our society, and their voices are essential in constructing a better education system. As educators, using your vote is a powerful way to advocate for necessary changes and improvements within the educational landscape. Don't Delay, Vote Today.

What you up to this Sunday morning?

Chilling?
Running?
In the gym?
Prepping for lunch?
Out with pals?
Doing nothing?

Why not make sure you have posted your ballot paper for the workload ballot? Then tell us by replying to email.

Wee bit of collective action on this fabulous day.

Some of the comments from our members survey. We need as many education staff and parents at possible on Wednesday at 7pm in the Rothes Halls to make sure Fife Council uses their "better than expected" budget position to change the situation in our schools. More information here: fb.me/e/42lOwkNO7.

The cabinet secretary admitted, at the EIS AGM last June, that commitments on class contact time should already have been delivered. Almost 8 months later and we are still waiting for any firm proposals on how it might be delivered to emerge from the Scottish Government and COSLA.

Members of @eisunion.bsky.social should let executive and council members know their views on the union's future use of X. It has been suspended pending further review. Tell your LA office too if they use X separately from the national body.
