The EIS said many new staff were being offered only short-term contracts with little job security.
New teachers are abandoning the profession because they are not being offered secure jobs, Scotland's largest teaching union has said.
Ms Bradley wrote: "Members have contacted the EIS over the summer months in desperation at the prospect of no work when the new school session begins. The union highlighted that many new staff had entered teacher training following Scottish government recruitment drives in 2016 and 2017.In her letter to Mr Yousaf, she said: "I ask again that you give this matter urgent consideration and provide additional funding to local authorities that is effectively ring-fenced for the recruitment of additional permanently employed teachers.
The government has warned before it could withhold or recoup funding if a council cuts teacher posts or spends ring-fenced money on something else. The Scottish government said its Strategic Board for Teacher Education, which is made up of a range of education bodies, was looking at the challenges around recruitment and retention of teachers.
