HC Deb 17 November 1992 vol 214 c166W
11. Mr. Byers

To ask the Secretary of State for Education what factors he will take into account when considering the recommendations from the School Teachers' Pay Review Body.

Mr. Patten

I set out in my letters to the chairman of the school teachers' review body dated 24 July and 12 November the considerations which should inform their recommendations for teachers' pay and conditions of service in 1993–94. Copies are in the Library.

Mr. Barry Jones

To ask the Secretary of State for Education if he will make a statement on teachers' pay.

Mr. Forth

My right hon. Friend has asked the school teachers' review body to make recommendations on teachers' pay and statutory conditions of service from April 1993. His letters to the chairman of the school teachers' review body dated 24 July and 12 November set out the matters on which he has asked for recommendations, and the considerations to which the review body is to have regard. Copies of both letters are in the Library.

Mr. Alex Carlile

To ask the Secretary of State for Education what representations he has received regarding performance-related pay for teachers and the scheme's proposed introduction.

Mr. Forth

My right hon. Friend has received a small number of representations on the introduction of performance-related pay for school teachers. He has asked the school teachers' review body to recommend how the pay of all school teachers might be more closely related to their individual performance.
