Send a message and demand Dundee City Council keep principal teachers and stop the unnecessary and costly restructure of secondary schools.
Why is this important?
Dundee City Council are trying to force through a disruptive restructure of all secondary schools in the area.
If the changes were to go ahead, the council would band subjects together under one faculty. The council would remove principal teachers from secondary schools and replace them with a new position – “faculty heads”.
The plans mean there would be fewer teachers in our already under-resourced schools and yet more disruption to students’ learning.
The changes would significantly increase workload for teachers – that means less one-to-one time with students.
We must show the council leader how many of us support these workers.
