answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 18/04/2023 answer text <table><tbody><tr><td><p>The Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) holds no data showing the number of prosecutions for making false allegations of rape. The CPS has strict guidance for charging perverting the court of justice and wasting police time in cases involving allegedly false allegations of rape and/or domestic abuse.

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 17/04/2023 answer text <p>The Department believes that teachers should be paid on the basis of their performance rather than the number of years they have been in the profession. We believe that the best teachers should be paid more and that the most successful should be able to progress faster than was previously the case.</p><p>The reforms to teachers’ pay introduced in September 2013 gave schools the flexibility to exercise their judgement as to how they reward their staff and to more closely align pay and performance. This enables them to attract and retain those teachers who have the greatest impact on their pupils’ achievements. This also means that schools are free to determine for themselves the salary, within the relevant national pay range, that they wish to offer on appointment.</p><p>Non-maintained schools, including academies and free schools, are responsible for determining the pay and conditions of their staff themselves. Such schools are not obliged to follow the statutory arrangements set out in the School Teachers’ Pay and Conditions Document, although they may still choose to do so.</p> answering member constituency Bognor Regis and Littlehampton answering member printed Nick Gibb question first answered 17/04/2023 16:54:54 answering member 111 label Biography information for Nick Gibb
