So excited to FINALLY announce that on top of keeping our funding, we have negotiated the biggest block grant Edinburgh Colleges have EVER seen for next yearl!!!! This means we can keep our four sabbatical officers - and Womens Officer, increase our staff and increase spending on students and do even more barrier smashing adventures next year! I really hope this leads the way for other Students Associations to negotiate a better deal that truly gives the autonomy that colleges so desperately need. Edinburgh College Students’ Association (ECSA) will break new ground for the further education sector in Scotland with the best funding package of its kind, under a new agreement with the college. ECSA – which was recently named the College Students’ Association of the Year at the National Union of Students (NUS) Awards 2014 – has signed a partnership agreement with the college that will ensure it has more influence on decision making and strengthen its ability to develop and meet students’ needs. The college is providing a new funding package for ECSA, which is the biggest for a Scottish college students’ association and will allow the association to grow sustainably. edinburghcollege.ac.uk/welcome/news_and_events/news.aspx?id=83 Thanks to everyone in ECSA, Edinburgh College, NUS and fellow FE colleaugues that helped, if Ive not tagged you its just out of excitement!!!!! #Autonomy #Sustainability #Funded #ECSA #Winning #Yassssss #FEParty
