Striking Tutors and union officials, together with stake-holders, finally took to the street outside Swansea Council last week, to protest punishing cuts to Education Other Than at School services (EOTAS), and challenging “plans” to cut the number of staff in the department by 45%, where the numbers of vulnerable children needing to use the service […]
