UNISON members have voted in favour of further strike action in Scottish schools across the country in the coming weeks.
More than 89% of members voted against Cosla’s latest offer in a ballot with strike dates to be announced in the coming days.
Unison's Scottish secretary Lilian Macer said: “No one takes industrial action lightly. It’s a very difficult decision for anyone, but as much as this is about pay, it’s also about standing up for local services. “No one wants to cause disruption for pupils and parents, but school staff have been left with no other option. The blame must be laid squarely at the door of Cosla and Scottish ministers.
