.@DanielKebedeNEU says that, while the 5.5% teacher pay offer is a significant first step, the government ‘should be under no illusion that a single pay deal is an end to the matter’

We welcome the announcement today that teachers will be awarded a fully funded 5.5% pay award. This is a necessary first step in reversing the real terms cuts inflicted upon the profession over the last 14 years. #ValueEducators

5.5% pay award for all Teachers across all bands
£1.2bn to fund the award
Is it a correction? No
Is it a step in the right direction? Yes
Is the award funded? Yes
Keegan abdicated. Philipson funded.
But it was our members engaging in the #PayUp24 campaign and through our indicative ballot (90% Yes to strike for fully funded above inflation award) that moved the "independent" review body.
This is a step towards a correction. A step towards fixing the recruitment & retention crisis.
More to be done.
