<p>Arrangements for teachers’ pay are based on recommendations from the School Teachers’
Review Body (STRB), the independent body that advises on teachers’ pay and conditions.
The reforms introduced in the last Parliament have given greater autonomy to schools
to decide how to reward their staff and how quickly pay progresses. The most successful
teachers are now able to progress faster than before. Following consultations with
the statutory consultees, the Secretary of State confirmed the government’s acceptance
of the STRB’s recommendations on 6 July 2015. The department has no plans to review
this decision.</p><p> </p>
