NewzThe UK’s largest education union has claimed a major victory after government ministers agreed to fully fund a forthcoming pay rise for teachers in England. The decision means that schools will no longer be required to partly finance the wage increase out of their existing institutional budgets.
The National Education Union welcomed the development, stating that government capitulation followed sustained pressure regarding the funding of the pay increase. The agreement ensures that the financial burden of the salary adjustment rests entirely with the central government rather than individual school budgets.
