Mr. Michael FosterTo ask the Deputy Prime Minister when he last assessed the level of teacher salaries paid by local authorities; and if he will make a statement. [131369]
§ Mr. MilibandI have been asked to reply.
The salaries of school teachers, including those of unattached teachers, are set in the School Teachers' Pay and Conditions Document, following the recommendations of the independent School Teachers' Review Body (STRB). It is for LEAs to determine which provisions of the document should apply to unattached teachers. The STRB is currently considering a range of evidence on unattached teachers.
