Nursery staff have hit out at the management of New College Lanarkshire after it was revealed that two childcare centres are to close at the end of the current term.
Early years education provisions at both the Coatbridge and Cumbernauld campuses are to cease in June and fuming staff members are criticising the college’s management for the way the closure announcements have been handled.
Over 30 members of staff at the two nurseries now face the prospect of redundancy or redeployment, although many believe the opportunity of the latter is highly unlikely given only the Motherwell campus will have a remaining childcare facility and is privately owned.
