Dear All,
A last update before you head into a well-deserved summer break. Glasgow started the session on our own ballot, and we are ending this year on a national one, so safe to say the EIS is in full Stand Up For Quality Education campaign mode. One final action members can take before the holiday is to make sure you have voted in this Consultative ballot and details are below if you have yet to do so. Thank you to all Glasgow Reps and members for your commitment to the successful No Cuts campaign. Thank you too, to Glasgow Committee of Management and Office Bearers for their work throughout.
- National SU4QE Workload Consultative Ballot: The 12-week electronic ballot, closing on August 28th, is a vote to reduce our workload. Please check your email and take a few seconds to cast your vote. If you have not received your email, contact ballot@eis.org.uk stating your name, your contact details (home and email addresses), EIS number if known and current school. All background information to this crucial ballot can be found here: Workload Consultative Ballot
- Speakers for Branch Meetings: Please contact glasgowla@eis.org.uk if your Branch would like a speaker in the new session to attend campaign meetings and we’ll get this organised. We’d address this consultative ballot on workload and the wider national SU4QE campaign plan, along with any other agenda items or issues your branch want to discuss. In the meantime, we’ll send round a campaign PowerPoint for Reps to support Branch meetings being held early in the new session.
- Dates for the diary: Glasgow LA plan an all members online meeting on Tuesday 19th August with details to follow. Our pensions department will be offering a further round of Teams meetings in the new session and the first of these is Tuesday 26th August. Sign up here to book your space.
Have a good holiday everyone and see you next session,
Thanks,
Jane
