In light of the government announcing plans to raise salaries for teachers in England, we’d like to find out whether this measure is enough to stop teachers leaving the profession.
According to government plans, the starting salary for teachers will go up from £24,373 to £26,000.Those working in outer London will get £30,000 and those in inner London will get £32,000. However salary increases for experienced teachers and school leaders will increase by just 2.5%.
Ins response to the announcement, Geoff Barton, general secretary of the Association of School and College Leaders said “We are currently haemorrhaging teachers from the profession and we will never solve the teacher supply crisis unless this situation is improved.”
If you work as a teacher in the UK we want to hear your response to the pay increases.
