Teacher Pay Rises To Be Tied To Performance
Teachers pay increases will no longer be based on length of service but instead will be more strongly linked to performance, says the profession's pay review body.
The School Teachers' Review Body have said pay increases should be based on the outcome of annual appraisals.
Welcoming the rejection of regional pay, head teachers' leader Russell Hobby said it was a "reasonable balance".
And Education Secretary Michael Gove welcomed the "greater flexibility".
The new pay plan is intended to make it easier for heads to recruit and reward the most talented staff and to respond more flexibly to local needs.
