The Government has today set out its response to the School Teachers' Review Body recommendations on teacher pay. This includes a 4% rise in teacher pay from September, with funding of £615m towards teacher and school support staff pay rises.
Confederation of School Trusts Chief Executive Leora Cruddas CBE said: "In the current economic climate we know that this extra £615m funding will have been hard won by education ministers, and the 4% pay rise for teachers is a good step towards helping with recruitment and retention.
"School trusts will still need to work very hard to balance budgets though, and we need a long-term financial settlement that really enables schools, staff, and children to flourish."
