New P1 Open Afternoon for Prospective Children and Parent/Carers
Industrial Action – Teacher Unions
Dear Parent/Carer
Industrial Action – Teacher Trade Unions
I let you know recently of the planned national strike by members of the teacher trade unions onTuesday 10 January 2023.
You will be aware that negotiations are continuing at a national level, but I would confirm that unless the strike is called off prior to this date the school will be closed on Tuesday 10 January 2023 for all pupils.
You may therefore wish to make contingency plans for childcare on Tuesday 10 January 2023.
School breakfast clubs will not operate on the day of the strike.
Yours sincerely
Head Teacher

Dear Parent/Carer
Industrial Action – Teacher Trade Unions
I am writing to inform you that the Council has been advised of further plans for industrial action by the teacher trade unions in the new year. This next stage of industrial action means that schools across Scotland will be targeted on specific days.
We have been notified by several teacher trade unions that their members will strike on:
- Tuesday 10 January 2023 – primary, ASN schools, and early years centres.
- Wednesday 11 January 2023 – all secondary and secondary ASN schools
Based on the information currently available, this will mean severe disruption to Primary, Secondary
and ASN schools and/or classes and is likely to result in schools having to close.
The EIS has intimated their plans to introduce a rolling period of industrial action across schools in Scotland with Friday 3 February 2023 being a further date identified for strike action in South Lanarkshire.
The purpose of this letter is to provide notice so that you can consider contingency plans for childcare for these days. I will provide a further update prior to the Christmas holiday period, or as information becomes available.
I trust that this information is helpful.
Yours sincerely
Head Teacher
