Easy for them to say then when they are sitting there on getting on for £100k pa if not more!
2023 pay rise
- Thread starter Bruce
- Start date
Plus 6% so it'll be £106K+
As I'm sure, in solidarity, they'll be turning down their own pay rise that's worth 4 support staff's increases when they refuse the increase for support staff.
New offer (Scotland)
More details will undoubtedly come…not sure on how the “2 part offer” works…reduce the back pay?

Or hire an extra member of senior management to lighten the workload of support staff.
Sad, but true.
Will be interesting to see the details of this. Suppose more will come out across the rest of the week. Seems like it'll be similar to the previous offer of initial percentage, then more in January.New offer (Scotland)

What gets me a bit is that the quoted £1929 will be based on FTE whereas the majority (?) of those possibly striking are TTO i.e <£1929
Makes it look better! Everyone got excited by it last time, then when they actually got it were, " Oh, I thought it was more".
Sounds perfectly reasonable to me.

Unison rejects latest school workers pay offer
Strikes are due to be held in schools across much of Scotland later this month if the dispute is not resolved.
www.bbc.co.uk
Rejected by GMB and expected Unite do the same as well. I wonder what the offer was - I'd imagine it wasn't much different to the previous one, after 6 months of stalling and hoping we would just give in.Rejected by Unison.

EDIT - Seen this from Unison
"The letter to Cosla points out that the revised offer represents an increase on the previous offer of only 0.17%. For those on the lowest pay the revised offer represents an increase of only £0.01 per hour, effective from 1st Jan 2024. Those working full-time and earning £25K or above are being offered no increase on the previous offer, which has already been rejected."

Quoting myself here just for the giggles, but as its a new year we're had a slight restructure on SLT. The little darlings were struggling with the workload so we've now added a 9th assistant head teacher to the secondary phase.
From the recent adverts we've had out we now know that the assistant heads are on £65k a year and the deputy heads are on £85k a year. Not sure what the head teachers are on, but before taking them into account the spend on SLT is just shy of £1m a year. But we can't afford to replace our recently departed admissions officer in the admin team as there isn't enough money.

The NEU call it 'academisation' - stuffing in more 'justified' management whilst cutting support staff.Quoting myself here just for the giggles, but as its a new year we're had a slight restructure on SLT.

We looked ours up as school finance documents are public if you know where to look, top paying salary is £100,000...Quoting myself here just for the giggles, but as its a new year we're had a slight restructure on SLT.

This is the info from the previous trust I worked for -
Employees with a gross annual salary and benefits of £100,000 or more
£100,000 – £110,000 – 1
£110,001 – £120,000 – 1
£120,001 – £130,000 – 2
£150,001 – £160,000 – 2
Funny how they wouldn't honour my request for back pay when we were granted the pay increase last year which would of only been approx £600.
This probably means including Employer pension contributions.
Heard on radio this morning that ScotGov were finally approached by COSLA for more cash...seems they've found £80M down the back of a sofa to go towards revised offer..."should" be new offer today some time (new deadline set by Unions is today to avoid strikes)
