Following years of little tangible progress, the EIS is engaging in a consultative ballot of its members for industrial action in pursuit of the SNCT dispute on reducing weekly class contact time to 21 hours.

The EIS is clear that reducing weekly class contact time to 21 hours, and ensuring that the full 1.5 hours to increase weekly preparation and correction time, would mark an essential step forward in addressing unsustainable levels of teacher workload.

This consultative ballot opened on 6th June and runs until 28th August 2025.

All EIS members are urged to vote YES to Action Short of Strike and Strike Action.
