Glasgow schools closed today as teachers take part in strike action over pay dispute

School teachers across Glasgow will be taking part in strike action today as part of a continuing dispute over pay.

Members of the Educational Institute of Scotland (EIS) union are beginning 16 days of rolling strike action on Monday, with teachers in two of Scotland's 32 local authority areas walking out each day until February 6.

The first two councils affected are Glasgow, where all schools are closed on Monday, and East Lothian where they are shut to all pupils apart from those taking preliminary exams that day.
