Campaigns

We play an important role in the campaign to protect the distinctive nature of Scottish education and the quality of provision.


As the largest teacher trade union in Scotland, with over 60,000 members, the EIS has a strong track record of delivering for its members and for the children and young people that they teach.

Representing 80% of the country’s teaching professionals, gives the EIS the strength to defend Scottish Education and protect the interests of its learners and teachers.

Regardless of the sector in which you work, EIS campaigning is relevant to you. Although we have no party-political affiliation, the EIS is a highly active member-led organisation which campaigns vigorously across the issues that are critically important to our members working in Early Years, Primary, Secondary and FE and HE, at all stages of their careers.

We make our voice heard on key campaigning priorities, for example, on equality and social justice issues, on climate education, on curriculum and assessment matters.
