answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 06/12/2018 answer text <p>The Department confirmed the teachers’ pay award on 24 July 2018. This included a 3.5% uplift to the main pay range for classroom teachers that will raise starting salaries significantly and increase the competitiveness of the early career pay framework. The upper pay range for higher paid teachers and the leadership pay range were uplifted by 2% and 1.5% respectively. This pay award will run across the 2018-19 academic year, covering 7 months of the financial year 2018-19 and financial year 2019-20. This pay award is covered by a Teachers’ Pay Grant worth £187 million in 2018-19 and £321 million in 2019-20. This grant provides additional funding to schools to cover the difference between the announced uplifts and the 1% award schools would have been expecting and planning for under the previous public sector pay cap.</p><p>My right hon. Friend the Secretary of State for Education has recently set the School Teachers’ Review Body (STRB)’s remit asking for their recommendations on the pay award for 2019-20 academic year. The Department highly values the robust evidence based process undertaken by the STRB in reaching its recommendations on teacher pay, and will be submitting evidence on recruitment and retention and affordability as part of this process. This evidence is due to be published in the coming months.</p> answering member constituency Bognor Regis and Littlehampton answering member printed Nick Gibb grouped question UIN 198260 question first answered 06/12/2018 08:55:01 answering member 111 label Biography information for Nick Gibb

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 14/11/2018 answer text <p>The Department supports head teachers in using exclusion where this is warranted. There has been a increase in exclusions recently, though there are still fewer exclusions than a decade ago.</p><p>In March, the Government launched an externally-led review of exclusions practice, led by Edward Timpson CBE. The review is exploring how head teachers use exclusion, and why pupils with particular characteristics are more likely to be excluded from school. It is also considering the differences in exclusion rates across primary and secondary schools in England.</p><p>The review will report at the beginning of next year. The full terms of reference for the review can be found here: <a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/school-exclusions-review-terms-of-reference" target="_blank">https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/school-exclusions-review-terms-of-reference</a>.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Bognor Regis and Littlehampton answering member printed Nick Gibb question first answered 14/11/2018 17:17:25 answering member 111 label Biography information for Nick Gibb

uin	189561
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 14/11/2018 answer text <p>The role of the independent review panel is to review a governing body’s decision not to reinstate a permanently excluded pupil. Where a panel considers that the decision of the governing body to uphold the exclusion is flawed it can quash the decision and require the governing body to reconsider the case. The final decision on whether to reinstate the child is with the governing body. The Government believes that schools are best placed to make that decision taking into account the wider impact of reinstatement on other pupils at the school. Where a governing body is directed to reconsider their decision but does not reinstate the pupil, the school will be expected to pay an additional financial contribution towards the costs of providing an alternative education for that pupil.</p><p>The Department believes that independent review panels provide for a quick, fair and accessible process for reviewing exclusion decisions, in a way that takes account of the rights of the wider school community.</p> answering member constituency Bognor Regis and Littlehampton answering member printed Nick Gibb question first answered 14/11/2018 17:13:52 answering member 111 label Biography information for Nick Gibb
