The University and College Union (UCU) claims 25 education staff have already been targeted because of the government cut in teacher training places.

Mary Senior, UCU Scottish official, said: "The university made it quite clear to us that its restructure plans would not be a cost- cutting exercise. With at least 80 jobs now at risk, those words mean little."
