Hello everyone,
the class size issue has been bubbling under the surface for a number of years now having started in the north of Scotland in Highland, Aberdeen City and Aberdeenshire but it’s now spread to Fife, Ayrshire and some parts of Edinburgh among others. Various Computing teachers in CAS Scotland, who are members of the EIS, have tried to raise this issue repeatedly at the annual AGM but the motion has been defeated every time. We did a significant amount of work to gather the arguments and the hard evidence for the last attempt but it was overtaken by a more general motion to look at practical subjects again. No one regularly involved in the committee has any time to spare to follow up on the status of this process as our day to day teaching workload has become an unending grind and many of us are either short staffed or in single person departments as well.
