§ 26. Mr. Butcherasked the Secretary of State for Education and Science if he will seek to change teachers' salary structures to permit an element of remuneration in recognition of good classroom performance.

A working party of that committee is studying a number of proposals including the extent to which the salary structure might reward good teaching.
