Further industrial action by teaching unions is expected to impact Orkney schools on Wednesday 18 January.

Parents are being contacted directly by schools to inform them of individual school arrangements.

For isles students, the Papdale Halls of Residence will remain open. For students at KGS or Stromness Academy, who would be expecting to attend Orkney College, the college will be open but there will be no school transport.

National negotiations involving COSLA, Scottish Government and Trade Unions are continuing, and updates with any further information will be shared as soon as possible.
