PART 2: SECTION 8 - DISCIPLINARY AND GRIEVANCE PROCEDURES

General

8.1 The SNCT has agreed disciplinary and grievance frameworks (as set out in Appendix 2.11 and Appendix 2.13) that provide a basis for the development of locally agreed disciplinary and grievance procedures.


Discipline

8.2 In accordance with a locally agreed disciplinary procedure, action may be taken by the authority where a teacher’s performance or conduct causes serious concern. The General Teaching Council for Scotland’s Code of Practice on Teacher Competence is at Appendix 2.12.


Grievance

8.3 Every teacher has the right to seek redress for grievances relating to their employment. Where a teacher, or a number of teachers collectively, wish to raise a grievance with their employer they can use of a locally agreed grievance procedure. The framework procedure is provided at Appendix 2.13 and the SNCT Appeals Procedure (only applicable in disputes involving national conditions of service) is at Appendix 2.14.
