Renfrewshire Joint Negotiating Committee for Teachers To: Renfrewshire Joint Negotiating Committee for Teachers On: 6 February 2024 ASN Provision Report by Joint Secretary (Teachers’ Side) Background A major strand of the EIS Stand Up for Quality Education (SUfQE) campaign is the under-resourcing of the additional support needs provision which has led to a reduction in the deployment of Pupil Support Assistants and Specialist ASN teachers within mainstream schools and other education settings. This under-resourcing is having an adverse impact on learners’ educational experiences and wellbeing, on the wellbeing of staff and on levels of behaviour. Action The Teachers’ Side is seeking a meeting with the Head of Children’s Services and Heads of Inclusion Services to discuss how a joint approach can help to support teachers in addressing the issues related to ASN provision.
