Teachers protest outside Nicola Sturgeon official residence as schools closed in pay dispute
Teachers demonstrated outside Nicola Sturgeon’s official residence today as part of their campaign for higher wages.
Alison Murphy, local secretary of the Educational Institute of Scotland led protests outside Bute House in Edinburgh. She said: "If the Scottish Government say they have no money, well, they need to take their budget back to the drawing board and they need to think again." Ben Cormie, 14, Lucy Crosbie, 13, and Isla Cormie, 17, were also among secondary students showing their support to teachers, too.“Ms Crosbie, she does everything for us, she is the best, so we just want to support them the most that we can in any way possible.”
