answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 21/06/2016 answer text <p>On 4 December 2015, the Department published its most recent assessment of median teachers’ pay compared to that of graduates employed in the private sector in England. The pay of graduates in the private sector has been used because teaching is a graduate job and therefore provides a better comparator than an average of pay across all jobs in the UK economy. The comparative assessment was included in the evidence that government submitted to the School Teachers Review Body (STRB). The comparative assessment can be found in figure 11 on page 45 of the publication, available here:</p><p><a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/482257/STRB_government_evidence_2016_pay_award.pdf" target="_blank">https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/482257/STRB_government_evidence_2016_pay_award.pdf</a>.</p> answering member constituency Bognor Regis and Littlehampton answering member printed Nick Gibb question first answered 21/06/2016 13:05:03 answering member 111 label Biography information for Nick Gibb

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 13/07/2015 answer text <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> answering member constituency Bognor Regis and Littlehampton answering member printed Nick Gibb question first answered 13/07/2015 14:07:23 answering member 111 label Biography information for Nick Gibb

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 17/03/2015 answer text <p>Recent School Teachers’ Review Body (STRB) referrals have focused on fundamental reforms to the overall pay and conditions framework for teachers. Following the STRB’s recommendations, these reforms have given schools much greater freedom to attract and retain the best teachers and to reward individuals in line with their contribution to improving their pupils’ achievements.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p>The demands on the STRB’s time and resources in the reform process mean that the government has had to make hard decisions on the issues it refers to STRB. In light of the focus of the important referrals above, the Department for Education has not prioritised revisions to the existing salary sacrifice arrangements for inclusion in recent STRB referrals. Future referrals to the STRB will be a matter for the next administration.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p> answering member constituency Yeovil answering member printed Mr David Laws question first answered 17/03/2015 15:38:30 answering member 1473 label Biography information for Mr David Laws
