Planned strike action January-February 2023
UPDATE for Craigmarloch/ASN:
The main teaching union has targeted strike action for ASN schools on Tuesday 10 January 2023 and the school will remain closed. Unions had previously advised that they would also allow members who teach in ASN schools to strike on Tuesday 10 January 2023 but today, Monday 9 January 2023, we have learned that this advice has changed and that they will target strike action on ASN schools on Wednesday 11 January 2023. This means that the school will now only open to pupils in the BGE (S1 - S3) and will be closed to senior phase pupils (S4 - S6) on Wednesday 11 January. We are extremely disappointed that the unions have changed their advice to members at this late stage but the situation is beyond our control.
