University of Chester Hist&ArchChester Even more ridiculous then, that you are thinking of making all the staff that made that happen redundant!

IT’S WORKING! Colleagues in history and archaeology have just been informed they are no longer at risk of redundancy. This is down to UCU plus an incredible and well supported campaign by Archaeology Chester and Chester Archaeology and Heritage Student Voices Let’s keep fighting, we CAN save every job!

UCU Chester Archaeology Chester Chester Archaeology and Heritage Student Voices This is amazing news! Congratulations to a high performing, high quality department. The best 🥂🥂🥂

Heritage & Archaeology staff have indeed received notification this pm that our 'at risk' status has been revoked (with as little rationale as it was instituted). We fight on in support of colleagues at risk: SOLIDARITY! THANK YOU to all who have supported us! UCU Chester

Staff, including those still at risk of redundancy, have been emailed and asked to donate to a retirement gift for the Senior Pro-Vice-Chancellor. The absolute *audacity* 🤬

Reading these words from UCU members it is clear how utterly demoralised and devalued staff at Chester feel. And some staff are still at risk of redundancy. There is only one way we fight this. Every member must attend the Rally to Reclaim our University on 24th July.

JOIN US to RECLAIM OUR UNIVERSITY! SATURDAY 24th JULY, TOWN HALL, CHESTER. #reclaimouruniversity #noredundancieschester

Last week our VC accused ‘disillusioned staff’ of damaging student conversion rates. Senior management never look to the role their own actions play in torching the institution’s reputation, staff and unions who speak out are always blamed.

As senior management teams across the country slash and burn their institutions, cutting excellent staff and departments without a thought, Chester’s VC gives us a snapshot of the perks and paybacks those same managers have come to expect. THREAD 1/7

PRIZES* for people who post pics of these flyers in Chester!!! Let's see JUST HOW CLEARLY we can communicate our disapproval to the VC. RALLY TO RECLAIM OUR UNIVERSITY, 12pm, Sat 24 July, Chester Town Hall. *To be redeemed at the #reclaimouruniversity rally 😉

In February 2021, the University of Chester issued notice of 86 redundancies. Since then, Chester UCU has sprung to life, and fought a no redundancies campaign that has reduced the number of posts at risk to 4. This is #OurChesterStory THREAD 1/8
