TEACHING unions called on the SNP Scottish government to pay up today after rejecting the latest council pay cuts plans.
The Convention of Scottish Local Authorities (Cosla) offered just a 2 per cent pay rise from August and 1 per cent from May 2025.
This is despite retail price index inflation still running at 3.3 per cent, and the Scottish government’s latest public-sector pay policy setting a 3 per cent marker.
