School staff have ended a long-running pay dispute with council leaders after accepting a pay offer.
Unison members in schools and nurseries - including janitors and catering staff - had been involved in industrial action since September.
They have agreed a deal that sets a timetable for staff to be paid a minimum of £15 per hour by 2026, with payments backdated to April 2023.
Cosla welcomed the acceptance of the "strong offer".
The dispute involved pupil support, cleaning, catering administration and janitorial workers in schools and early years centres across the country.
The Unite and GMB trade unions had already voted to accept the previous pay offer which will see the lowest-paid workers get a rise of about £2,000 a year while other staff would get rises worth at least 5.5%.
Unison staff had sought further guarantees over the pay uplift and voted for the fresh deal by a margin of 69.6%.
Industrial action had led to walkouts and school closures in multiple council areas between September and early November.
