Ministers received detailed advice from officials before announcing the Teachers\u2019 Pay Grant. Unions and other representative organisations also contacted the Department.<\/p>

The Teachers\u2019 Pay Grant was introduced in response to changes to the School Teachers\u2019 Pay and Conditions Document (STPCD), following recommendations from the School Teachers\u2019 Review Body. This document applies to maintained schools, and as many academies choose to follow it, the grant was available to both maintained schools and academies.<\/p>

There are 16-19 maintained schools which must follow the STPCD. These were included in the pay grant, alongside equivalent academies.<\/p>

Further education (FE) and sixth form colleges have a different legal status and relationship to Government. They are private institutions, independent of Government, and it is for employers to agree pay structures, based on local needs. The Department is considering carefully the needs of FE colleges, including in relation to funding, in preparation for the next Spending Review.<\/p>

At Autumn Budget 2019, the Chancellor made available £410 million in 2019/20 for social care services in local authorities \u2013 both adult and children\u2019s social care. We proposed in the provisional local government finance settlement to distribute these resources based on the existing Adult Social Care relative needs formula, as the best available method. Consultation responses overwhelmingly supported this approach which was confirmed in the final settlement. Local authorities have welcomed the additional funding and the discretion to spend in a way which best fits their community\u2019s needs.<\/p>
