Cuts to school budgets in West Dunbartonshire will result in increased disruption and a drop in attainment, it has been warned.
Gavin Corrigan of the EIS trade union issued the stark message last week during a meeting of West Dunbartonshire Council’s educational services committee.
He warned that schools were already seeing an increase in classroom disruption, adding that the cost of living crisis and hangover from the Covid-19 pandemic was continuing to have an adverse impact on young people’s education.
