Further teacher strikes likely as key union decries 'insulting' pay offer

The National Education Union (NEU) said the offer of a 4.3% rise for most teachers plus a £1,000 one-off payment for the 2023-24 year was not enough and that it would recommend that its members reject the deal.

Talks between the government and four teaching unions ended yesterday with the unions considering the Department for Education's offer.

However, the NEU said the government was offering only to fund half a percentage point of the pay increase, with the rest expected to come out of existing school budgets.

Dr Mary Bousted and Kevin Courtney, joint general secretaries of the NEU, said it did not match the offers in Scotland and Wales or address the crisis in teacher recruitment.
