EIS members at the private Hutchesons' Grammar school in Glasgow walk out in a row over pensions.
Teachers at the former school of First Minister Humza Yousaf have walked out on strike in a row over pensions.
The union said staff were sent letters saying they would have to sign new contracts, with the jobs of anyone who refused being advertised elsewhere. The school has decided to withdraw from Scottish Teacher Pension Scheme , a defined benefit scheme that guarantees the level of income staff receive in retirement, and replace it with a less costly private scheme which the union regards as "inferior".giving them notice that their contract would be terminated but offering to take them on again under new terms - including the new pension scheme.
Hutchesons' Grammar said the board of governors was "extremely disappointed" about the action and strongly rejected accusations of "fire and rehire".
