@SparesCeltic looking for two tickets for the Bologna game on the 22nd! Would really appreciate it troops 🙏

We cannot rely on teachers to fill the gap where additional funding and resources should be to keep up with the increased demand for ASN support in our schools.
Teachers and schools simply cannot do more with less.

Hi @bluecoatpress, I ordered a book from you at the beginning of November and am yet to recieve it. I have contacted you via email on several occaisions, and despite recieving one reply several weeks ago, there has been no update. Can you advise on how best to resolve the matter?

All four campuses at @edinburghcoll standing shoulder to shoulder on strike against the unnecessary redundancy of our long standing colleague and experienced union rep. This doesn't need to happen as we've made the required savings! #no2CRatEC #fightingforFE #saveKev #fe
Fantastic @EISFela rally today outside the Scottish Parliament in support of the @CogcEis strike!
Some great words of solidarity from @edincol_eisfela, @NUSScotland, @ScottishTUC and more.
This is what a winning campaign looks like ✊️📢 – at Edinburgh, Scotland
Always a pleasure to get out on the pickets, and a real privelege to support @EISFela in these vital disputes ✊️ – at Glasgow, Scotland
Out on the picket lines with City of Glasgow @EISFela at Riverside Campus. Day 1 of extended strike action opposing cuts & compulsory redundancies. We know rotten governance & financial mismanagement are the reason #nomorecuts

Day 2 of strike action as our members fight to secure a decent pay offer. Members at Glasgow Caledonian University joined by UCU colleagues on the pickets early this morning. @EISUnion #TheDifferenceIsStriking #HEPayCrisis
Liam McCabe retweeted
This offer is nothing less than an abject insult to Scotland’s hard-working teaching professionals. After months of prevarication & weeks of empty promises, COSLA & SG come back with an offer than is worth that same 5% to the vast majority of teachers. eis.org.uk/latest-news/payof…
With @ScotGovEdu publishing their report on estranged students this week we must now consider what change it will inform. @beccablandish and I have reflected on this, with special consideration given to the challenges of students around housing.

We're pleased to see the publication of this research on the experiences of estranged students, which corroborates the findings of our Broke report. It's now time for the @scotgov to deliver on their promise of better support.

We’re really grateful to @ScotCen & @scotgov for a powerful piece of research on estranged young people. Findings mirror those of @NUSScotland’s report and show student homelessness is not a thing of the past yet. gov.scot/publications/resear…
Pleased that this has finally been published. It corrobortes the existing research and data showing estranged students' struggles with cost of living, homelessness and mental health. I look forward to hearing from @jamiehepburn about @ScotGovEdu's plans to tackle these issues.
Absolutely worth a read, Rachel's piece here is (as usual) phenomenal! – at Birkenshaw, Scotland

Deeply saddened to hear of Ambassador Cocher's passing, he was a kind and gracious man.
I'll always remember the hospitality he showed @MEUscotland, and the advice and encouragement he gave to our participants.
My thoughts are with his family, friends and colleagues. – at Birkenshaw, Scotland

Happy birthday @nusuk, looking no bad for 100!🎉
I'm constantly thankful for the 7 years I spent as a volunteer and officer in Scotland as part of such an important organisation, and I'm reassured that the movement only keeps getting stronger! 🙏
Here's to the next 100 years!👌
It’s our birthday today!🎂1⃣0⃣0⃣🎂
100 years ago, students came together to build the National Union of Students - now we're coming together to build a #NewVisionForEducation. Proudly radical since 1922. #NUS100 #Students2022
