Some parents report the UNCRC is being weaponised against them, used as a tool to exclude + marginalise rather than protect children’s rights. The phrase- watch out for the parent' echoes through corridors, creating a culture of mistrust with devastating consequences for children

So to all the parents and families out there, we see you. Whatever you do over the next two weeks, I hope you find peace, rest, and strength for the year ahead. Solidarity always, and thank you to everyone who continues to support and engage with us. 💜

The EIS has announced that it will open a statutory ballot for strike action in Glasgow schools, if Glasgow City Council and the Scottish Government do not confirm the reversal of teacher cuts in Glasgow. eis.org.uk/latest-news/gl…
