Review body recommends teachers get 6.5% pay rise

Unison is balloting its members in schools and councils in England, Wales and Northern Ireland who are on nationally agreed pay for strike action to support its pay claim of 12.7 per cent. The postal ballot starts on 23 May and closes on 4 July. Unison is recommending members vote yes for strike action. Pictured is the Portsmouth Unison group 

 

"The government keep telling us inflation will fall by the end of the year, but I have no confidence in their promises. In any case, the huge price rises that have already eaten into our wages will continue to do so. The cost of our 12.7% pay claim is approximately £1.1B. Half of this comes straight back to central government through increased tax payments and reduced benefits. This year's spring budget gave £9B of tax cuts to big business. During the pandemic £10B was wasted on PPE contracts that didn’t deliver. Central government can afford to fully fund the pay increase we need, and our schools and councils need. The only way we can get fair pay for school and council workers is to vote for strike action." said Jon Woods, Portsmouth City UNISON Branch Chair
