PAT'S STATEMENT ON TEACHERS' PAY ANNOUNCEMENT

05 December 2005

The Professional Association of Teachers (PAT) has commented on the announcement on teachers' pay made today (05 December 2005) by the DfES.

PAT General Secretary Jean Gemmell said: "Teachers may well be disappointed by the proposed 2.5% increase, but it is in line with the retail prices index for October and the Education Secretary has accepted the STRB's recommendations.

"The increase is more than I had feared it might have been earlier in the year."
