(Photograph) - A young protester joins the picket line at Newhurst nursery in the Easterhouse area of Glasgow to back the case for higher pay and a better career structure for nursery nurses.
Parents were advised that the nursery would be open as usual but refused to cross the picket.
Local authority employers are insistent that there is no prospect of a national settlement.
