School staff protest in Glasgow during day of industrial action

Glasgow school support staff protested in the city centre today as they continued their strike over low pay.

Unison members across Scotland walked out on Wednesday, forcing hundreds of schools to close after members voted overwhelmingly to reject Cosla's latest pay offer.

Schools from the Glasgow City, Renfrewshire, East Renfrewshire, and Inverclyde areas have been affected by the industrial action today, with more strikes to come.

The next day of action is Wednesday, November 8, when a further four council areas will be impacted. That includes South Lanarkshire, Dumfries and Galloway, Edinburgh, and Fife.

And another walkout has been announced for November 15, when staff from Angus, Dundee City, Clackmannanshire, Perth and Kinross and Stirling will strike.
