College lecturer, worn out nearly to breakdown by the prospect that a year of sacrifice by my students and myself could be thrown away. Views are all my own

All Colleges Scotland needs to do to stop strike action is to ratify the deal their negotiators tables and EISFela ratified. But they haven't and wont answer the most simple of our questions. Why? #collegesneedlecturers

What's next if Nicola Sturgeon supports Colleges Scotland view that colleges can do without a clear definition of lecturers? Schools don't need teachers? FE is essential to post covid rebuild but it looks like The SNP would prefer to do it on the cheap. #ratifythedeal

Sheer duplicity from Colleges Scotland they wrote the description of a lecturer the EIS ratified but wouldn't ratify their own description. Doing so would have prevented a strike. They are throwing an entire year of students to the wolves and Nicola Sturgeon and Scottish Government don't care

@whiteheather17 EIS FELA South Lanarkshire College Direct attack on working class education Nicola Sturgeon here’s a question. Do you believe FE needs qualified LECTURERS to deliver quality education in Scotland? Yes or no, it’s simple answer.

As a UX, Design thinking and innovation specialist I can assure you that forward thinking, innovative organisations put empathy before metrics. Is Colleges Scotland fit for purpose, because all that seems to be happening is bean counting? #SNPdisnaecare

I should probably add, before I'm accused of being a yoon agitator, that I voted pro-indy in '14 and would do so again, but not at any cost and education on the cheap is too much of a sacrifice. #collegesneedlecturers #ratifythedeal Nicola Sturgeon doesn't seem to care though

Watch this about good leadership in effective organisations by Simon Sinek. Where do EISFela colleagues think Colleges Scotland sit on the graph? #ratifythedeal Scottish Government youtube.com/watch?v=YPDmNa…

Great news that EISFela have, once again, been able to ratify the new deal which was negotiated. Fingers crossed Colleges Scotland are able to follow suit this time and resolve a strike which is putting at risk the huge sacrifice made by students and lecturers through the pandemic
