Dear All,
Welcome back and hope you had a great break over the summer. Just a few notes to share with members this first week back.
· Branch Meetings: Please contact glasgowla@eis.org.uk if a speaker would be helpful at any upcoming branch meetings planned in the new session. It may be for a talk on specific topics such as health and safety legislation or to discuss local issues/concerns with members.
· Update your Details: If you’ve moved on to a new school in Glasgow or another local authority for session 26/27, then please update your details on MyEIS. This means we can make sure you are getting the information you need from local and national EIS. If you're having problems with this, then contact membership@eis.org.uk
· EIS Equality Rep Training: New course dates are now confirmed for this session. Please contact glasgowla@eis.org.uk for registration details and see here for further information about the role of Equality Rep.
· Disrupt Disinformation – Let’s Change the Story: With the rise in anti-equality and prejudicial narratives within society, and educational establishments, the EIS has developed a project to support members to address disinformation and prejudice. It has a dedicated page on the national website to be found here and is complete with resources which will support promoting equality, diversity and inclusion. Members can register to be kept updated with new information and upcoming events and, in partnership with TIE, there is a staff development session which schools can book.
Thanks, and best wishes for the new session.
Jane
