A plan to have a national teachers strike in Scotland
For several weeks that had passed, it was been news that most of the teachers in England had join the teachers strike which leads to the temporarily closure of the schools and pending of school activities due to the mass teachers strike. The national teacher’s strike that had happened in England was an alarming situation because of the fact that this was the first teacher’s strike that happened for over twenty years. In that case, it only means that teachers are really having much concern that the teachers are expressing out which leads them to go on having a strike. Although, the government in England had already settle the concerns of their teachers but still the teachers concerns in other part of United Kingdom still continue to occur especially in Scotland.
It has been reported that there are several concerns that the Scottish teachers are facing right now. This concerns primarily deals on more about their welfare in their teaching career jobs. There are reports that some teachers have not received the right amount of payment and benefits as they have been employed to the different educational learning institutes in the country. Aside of that also, the educational expenditures of the teachers are very much expensive especially upon having their training jobs in the different public or private schools of the country and their educational expenses can’t replace with the salary that they are receiving when the time comes that they will gain an employment or when they are still searching for a job employment.
With that scenario, it leads the Scottish teachers to come up a plan to conduct a national teachers strike just like what the teachers in England had been conducted in order to be given attention by the government. This action of having teachers national strike had been decided when lots of teachers anonymously voted with an action to forego a strike if the Scottish government will not pay attention and protect their welfare in their teaching profession. The Scottish teachers are just very hopeful that the government will give them importance by giving them the things that they have requested.
