Comment on Teachers in England get two-year 6.6% pay rise but schools to foot part of bill
tankplanker@lemmy.world 18 hours agoMajority of state schools only have their income from either the local authority or the trust they are part of, so yeah, reduced funds. Its how the majority of recent money for pay rises has been expected to be funded.
Couple this with up till just very recently rampant SLT and trust salaries consuming ever more money from a limited pot and you have why schools have rapidly gone backwards.

One of our local MATs has a CEO on £400k plus £60k pension contribution per year. AND a personal car and chauffeur to drive him from school to school. Apparently, it’s like royalty arriving when he turns up to do a tour and shout at people.

Sounds very familiar. I know a head teacher who gave his wife a SLT job with no teaching or actual responsibility, she won’t even do emergency cover for lessons and he won’t pay for supply teachers either.
The whole system is self awarded CEO pay on speed run.
