NESCol to remain open during industrial action

April 16, 2024

The EIS-FELA trade union, which represents some NESCol teaching staff, is leading a rolling programme of strikes in Scotland’s colleges in April.

It is part of industrial action in relation to an ongoing pay dispute in the college sector, which is the subject of negotiations at a national level.

The College is committed to lobbying on behalf of staff and the wider sector for increased central funding to alleviate the significant financial pressures facing all colleges.

NESCol has been notified of planned action on 17 April, 25 April and 30 April.

The College aims to minimise any impact on students and campuses will remain open. Students should continue to follow timetables unless notified directly of alternative arrangements.
