No pay cuts for teachers!
Year on year pay cuts mean
o Teachers and their families facing a downwards spiral in their income
o Younger teachers particularly facing accumulating debt
o Encouragement to “compete” with other teachers for performance related pay, inadequate TLRs etc
o Discouragement to young graduates to join the teaching profession
o Resulting teacher shortages
Increasing class sizes
o Lack of personal attention for pupils
o Increase in workload and working hours
o Unqualified people teaching whole classes
To defend education, to win a good local state school for every community, we have to defend teachers’ pay.
Teachers simply cannot afford to allow year on year cuts to their pay.
