DfE: Teachers should get 6.5% pay rise over three years
The government has told the School Teachersโ Review Body how much teachers should receive up to 2029
๐จThe govt has recommended a 6.5% teacher pay rise across three years.
Unions are not happy - @danielkebedeneu.bsky.social has called it a "real terms pay cut" & @nasuwt-official.bsky.social has warned that it will "exacerbate the recruitment and retention crisis".

@danielkebedeneu.bsky.social : "Social media is robbing children of their childhoods. Their attention is being harvested by big tech giants in the pursuit of profit, & just like alcohol or tobacco, both highly disruptive & addictive, social media should be regulated in the same way"

Daily Mail headline - Socialist education union chief demands four-day week in office and a 'mark from home day' for teachers
This shouldnโt be controversial to say - educators deserve a better work-life balance.
Itโs a stressful profession in a recruitment crisis.
If we want more teachers, and we want them at their best, they need a better working week, just like everybody else.
