A group of Leeds students have occupied a room in the University in protest of the senior management’s treatment of students and staff.
The students have occupied the council chamber room within the University of Leeds and have made two demands. They have demanded an end to all pay deductions for staff taking part in the marking boycott and have asked the Vice-Chancellor, Simone Buitendijk, to commit to resolving the Leeds UCU and Unison disputes.
So far, the students have been occupying the room since Monday and have said they refuse to leave until their demands are met.
