The school week could be cut to four days in West Dunbartonshire, under shock proposals to help the local authority close its £14m budget gap.
Members at Church Street will meet on March 1 to discuss how to close WDC's biggest ever budget deficit - which sat at more than £20m in December.
One potential option which is set to be presented to members will be plans to cut the school week by a day, with the local authority estimating that this could save £1.3m in 2023/24, rising to £2m in 2024/25.
