DUSA Exec statement on Supreme Court ruling and support for trans students
We are disappointed by the Supreme Court’s ruling that “the terms woman and sex in the Equality Act 2010 refer to a biological woman and biological sex.”

As you may be aware, some staff members who are part of Dundee University and College Union (DUCU) will be on strike from February 24th, which may cause disruptions to some of your classes. The decision to strike is a very difficult one to make and we know that staff have not taken this lightly, and we empathise with their position.
This is a particularly challenging time for students. Our top priorities are to advocate for the quality of your education, provide you with support and engage with you during this period. We are in continuous dialogue with University management and are focused on minimising the impact of the strikes.
We want you to feel supported – reach out if you have any questions or concerns.
