Who does this apply to?

This article applies to all teachers employed under the School Teachers' Pay and Conditions Document (STPCD). This includes:

  • All teachers at maintained schools, including:
    • Senior leaders, such as headteachers
    • Special educational needs co-ordinators (SENCOs)
    • Part-time teachers
    • Non-agency supply teachers
  • Teachers whose employment transferred from a maintained school to an academy at the point of conversion and whose contracts haven't been further negotiated

Check your teachers' contracts if you're unsure whether or not they are employed under the STPCD.

Pay ranges for 2023/4

There's at least a 6.5% increase across all pay ranges.

This means that all qualified teachers will have a starting salary of at least £30,000

There are currently no statutory pay points within pay ranges, but you can use the advisory points for the main (MPR) and upper (UPR) pay ranges in Annex 3 (page 63) to help you review
