UNISON janitors' industrial action

Published: 11 March 2016

UNISON has notified the council of the intention by some of their janitorial members in the city's primary, Additional Support for Learning (ASL) schools and nurseries to take part in industrial action from Monday 14 March - Wednesday 16 March.

All our schools and nurseries will be open unless we inform parents and carers otherwise as we have contingencies in place for schools and nurseries to operate as normal.

However, as we are not able to guarantee supervision before the school bell on Monday morning, regrettably we have had to take a decision to cancel Breakfast Clubs in affected primary schools - parents and carers will have been informed if their school's breakfast club will not operate.

This is based on the most up-to-date information and is subject to change at short notice.

School lunches and snacks during the school day will operate as normal as possible.

We apologise for the inconvenience this will cause parents and carers and we will continue to work with our colleagues in CORDIA and UNISON to resolve this matter as quickly as possible.

Further industrial action is planned by UNISON and we will keep parents and carers updated with information as soon as we have this with posts on the website, @GlasgowCC tweets and via your child's school or nursery communication channels.
