The Scottish Negotiating Committee for Teachers has reached a pay agreement for teachers and associated professionals for 2017- 2018.
Agreement has been reached on:
Pay
- A 1% uplift in pay from 1 April 2017 to 31 December 2017 will apply to all teachers and associated professionals who are governed by the SNCT bargaining arrangements. A further uplift of 1% will be added from 1 January 2018. Full details are set out in the revised Appendix 2.1 of the SNCT Handbook.
Short-Term Supply Teachers
- Arising from the above agreement, the rate of pay for short-term supply teachers is restored to the individual’s appropriate point on the main grade scale, with effect from 1 January 2018.
- Therefore, all supply teachers will be paid the appropriate point on the main grade scale, regardless of the duration of the cover.
- Short-term supply teachers will be paid for actual class contact time plus 10% for duties carried out in the school such as correcting work as part of ongoing classwork, maintaining a record of work, and contributing towards good order in the school, as agreed with the Headteacher.
