Families at Chryston Primary highlighted their concerns about plans to introduce a shared management role for their school by staging a protest walk around the area “looking for our missing head teacher”.
Parents and pupils also then demonstrated at the headquarters of North Lanarkshire Council, protesting at controversial plans to introduce one joint headship for both the primary school and Chryston High – while an opposition attempt to debate the subject at a council meeting was refused.
More than 100 people took part in the Chryston protest, while 1500 have signed an online petition – with primary school parents saying the 15-month head teacher vacancy at their school is negatively impacting youngsters.
