A lecturers’ union has warned plans by a leading college to cut courses will put jobs at risk and harm the young people of Edinburgh, amid a campaign to force management into a U-turn.
More than 500 Edinburgh College lecturers who are part of the Further Education Lecturers’ Association (FELA) have passed a motion of no confidence in the institution’s principal, Audrey Cumberford, along with her senior management team, and urged them to withdraw the threat of redundancies.
