Resolution

1. Council

This AGM condemns Glasgow City Council's planned cut of 450 teachers' posts over the next three years, starting with 172 teachers' posts to go this August, and also deplores the previous loss of 125 teaching posts in Glasgow.

This AGM, therefore, instructs Council to raise this as a matter of urgency with Scottish Government, in light of their stated policy of protecting teachers numbers.

This AGM also instructs Council to inform COSLA that any moves to replicate these cuts in the other 31 local authorities will be met with a robust response, up to and including the declaration of disputes and industrial action.
