Join us for a rally outside Scottish Parliament at 11.30am on the 29th February. This rally marks the first day of national strike action across Scotland's colleges following our successful re-ballot. The clock is ticking...Fund FE NOW!

Please join us next week outside the Scottish parliament in Edinburgh for a rally as we continue the pursuit for fair pay in FE. Lecturers have not been given a pay rise since 2021, fair pay for lecturers is well overdue. The clock is ticking...Fund FE Now! #fightingforfe 📢

Funny how they always justify it by talking about attracting the right kind of applicant (pure fantasy). The reality? Well, we all know the reality: a managerial class dangerously out of touch with the service providers Humza Yousaf The SNP This is where to make savings!

Organisations like College Employers Scotland should have been using their voice in defence of FE. Instead they decided to pick a fight with EISFela & UNISON Scotland College bosses have never accepted national bargaining & have repeatedly tried to undermine it

Well done to the GlasgowKelvinCollege Board of Management who have decency and morals to vote against deeming lecturing staff. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Now for more to follow suit and recognise workers' rights to take industrial action ✊🏻 EISFela EIS heraldscotland.com/news/24386167.…

I worked in colleges for nearly a decade and now I write about Scottish education. I say the same thing over and over: for the people who run Scotland, colleges are for other people's children.

Actions of a Principal and the SG who’ve collectively lost the plot- both on their way out of office.

In any other organisation, a vote of ‘No Confidence’ in the leader, from your greatest asset, your staff - would result in your resignation #notinFE EISFela NCL_EIS_FELA @GraemeDeyMSP John Swinney James McEnaney EIS-FELA CoGC SouthLanCollEISFELA The SNP #Deemedifwedo #FightingforFE #change

One day, probably under a new Scottish govt, the extent of the mismanagement of public funds by South Lanarkshire College and the beneficiaries will come out. #wheresourmoneygone EISFela EIS FELA South Lanarkshire College NCL_EIS_FELA @GraemeDeyMSP John Swinney James McEnaney EIS-FELA CoGC #Deemedifwedo #FightingforFE #change

For nearly a decade, some staff at South Lanarkshire College have had excessive pension payments deducted from their wages - all because the college didn't properly update their systems, and then managed to not notice all this time.

And it's probably worth noting that when I asked the college how much it expected all this to cost, they didn't answer the question.

Lucky Nicola Sturgeon and the The SNP were taking worrying reports about South Lanarkshire College seriously when they were told - 2yrs ago! #wheresourmoneygone EISFela EIS FELA South Lanarkshire College NCL_EIS_FELA @GraemeDeyMSP John Swinney James McEnaney EIS-FELA CoGC #Deemedifwedo #FightingforFE #change
