TEACHING unions have attacked proposals by Scotland's largest local authority to slash £15 million from its education budget – arguing the plans will damage learning.
The Educational Institute of Scotland (EIS) hit out after Glasgow City Council announced the measures as part of £70m budget cuts in the next two years.
The cuts include merging and relocating specialist schools for children with learning difficulties and reducing support for learning teachers to save £2.5m.
