Teachers at a Glasgow independent school have returned to strike action amid an ongoing dispute.

Members of the EIS teaching union at Hutchesons’ Grammar voted to down tools in a row over pensions in May, but had halted the action amid positive talks with the school.

According to the union, staff were sent letters over the Easter break saying they would have to sign new contracts, with the jobs of anyone who refused being advertised elsewhere.

The move led to the first strike action in the history of the school, which boasts both Mr Yousaf and Scottish Labour leader Anas Sarwar among its former pupils.

The school later announced it would delay the plans for a year and continue its talks with teaching unions.

However, staff resumed their strike on Wednesday amid claims by the union that the school had reneged on the announcement made two weeks ago.
