Book excerpt: This is the 18th report from the School Teachers' Review Body (Cm. 7546, ISBN 9780101754620), which is an independent body established in 1991 to examine and report on such matters relating to the statutory conditions of employment of school teachers in England and Wales to the Prime Minister and Secretary of State for Education. Tne report is divided into 6 chapters with 4 appendices. The Review Body has set out a number of recommendations, including: that teachers' pay be increased by 2.3% from 1 September 2009 pending the outcome of a review in June 2009; that there be an adjustment to the main and upper pay scale for inner London (as proposed in the 17th Report: Part One, Cm.7252, ISBN 9780101725224), of £26,000 for teachers in Band A, with consequential adjustments to the main pay scale from September 2009. In respect of teachers' professional responsibilities and conditions of employment, the Review Body recommends, that: the Department consult all interested parties on the Review Body's draft statement of purposes and professional responsibilities; that the Department should re-structure the School Teachers' Pay and Conditions Document (STPCD, ISBN 9780112711988) to make it more coherent and user-friendly; that the Department should investigate long working hours for teachers and head teachers. There are also recommendations in respect of leadership in schools, special educational needs allowances and excellent teachers.

This book was released on 2011-05-09 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Review Body was asked to consider two issues: payment for teachers earning £21,000 or less, in the context of the two-year public sector pay freeze that will affect teachers from September 2011; and whether there should be a limit on the value of the discretionary payments that can be applied to head teachers' pay, and if so, what it should be and how it should be applied. The only teachers whose full-time equivalent pay is £21,000 or less are some of those on the unqualified teacher scale. The Department for Education proposed a non-consolidated payment of £250. The Review Body concludes that the non-consolidated payment of £250 in both years is appropriate for all full-time unqualified teachers, with pro-rata payments for those working part-time. Remuneration for head teachers is a crucial issue, and the Review Body concludes that the case has been made in principle for a limit to be put in place, and that effective governance is key to ensuring appropriate reward whilst maintaining proper oversight of public funds. There should be a 'base' Individual School Range (ISR) for a head teacher described in the School Teachers Pay and Conditions Document (STPCD). Any discretion above 'base' ISR pay must be clearly justified and should not exceed the limit of 25% above the individual's point on their 'base' ISR in any given year. The Department should redraft the STPCD to give effect to the recommendations and to draw together all existing discretions as they impact on head teachers.

This book was released on 2009-07-09 with total page 94 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Review Body was required to review the recommendations for teachers' pay for September 2009 and 2010 that it made in its 17th report Part 1 (2008, Cm. 7252, ISBN 9780101725224). The Body scrutinised the same factors it considered in the earlier report, took further evidence from the interested parties and conducted an analysis of relevant data. The conclusion is that the indicative award of 2.3 per cent increase in teachers' pay in September 2009 should be confirmed and the indicative award for 2010 of a further 2.3 per cent should also be confirmed. The Review Body also recommends that the Department for Children, Schools and Families undertakes regular data collection and analysis to monitor developments in the teacher workforce related to issues of diversity and equality. The Department should also: review and strengthen the way it encourages schools to use existing recruitment and retention flexibilities to address local teacher shortages in mathematics and other priority subjects; consider the introduction of new financial and other incentives and measures to improve the quantity and quality of the supply of mathematics teachers.

Download or read book The Emergence of Postfeminist Identities in Higher Education written by Eleftheria Atta and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-05-16 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By drawing on qualitative research conducted in universities in Cyprus, this book presents an account of life in the academy from a feminist perspective. In doing so, the texts uncover new gendered identities emerging as a result of neoliberal and postfeminist discourses in Higher Education. Adopting a psychosocial lens, and drawing on theories of affect and performativity, this volume explains academics’ responses to growing levels of stress, anxiety, precarity and competition in their professional environment. Chapters offer rich observation of how academic staff and faculty negotiate aspects of femininity and masculinity within the academy, and so highlights the performance of ‘gendered academic subjectivities’ as a way in which academics deal with increasing pressures and anxiety. Ultimately proposing a typography of emergent, affective identities including industry academics, fossilised, family and wannabe academics, the volume yields important insights into the current workings of Higher Education and shows the personal and professional impacts of neoliberal dynamics. This volume will prove to be a useful resource for researchers and high-level scholars in the fields of education, sociology of education and gender studies. More generally, scholars and academics with an interest in the changing face of contemporary Higher Education will find this book informative.

Download or read book Human Resource Management in Education written by Justine Mercer and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2010-06-10 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The study of educational leadership makes little sense unless it is in relation to who the leaders are, how they are leading, what is being led, and with what effect. Based on the premise that learning is at the heart of leadership and that leaders themselves should be learners, the Leadership for Learning series explores the connections between educational leadership, policy, curriculum, human resources and accountability. Each book in the series approaches its subject matter through a three-fold structure of process, themes and impact. Series Editors - Clive Dimmock, Mark Brundrett and Les Bell The effects of globalization are evident in education policy around the world. Governments from the United States to China are driving their education systems to produce more skilled, more flexible, more adaptable employees. The pressure to perform is all-pervasive, meaning present-day leaders have to go beyond the principles of humane and equitable management practice and look for a competitive advantage through strategies that enhance motivation, build capacity for organizational improvement, and produce better value-added performance. Human Resource Management in Education debates the fundamental question of how far effective human resource management policies can enable schools and colleges to transcend the paradoxes of the global reform agenda. It analyses the relationship between leadership, the classroom and results, and uses case studies to explore the extent to which performance is enhanced by distributed leadership and constrained by social, political and economic contexts. The book is divided into three parts: examining the current context of human resource management, by critically analysing globalization, human capital theory, and worldwide trends in government legislation, societal values, and teacher culture(s); exploring two pairs of contemporary themes in human resource management, by comparing the roles of leaders and followers, on the one hand, and contrasting learning and greedy organizations, on the other; looking at how the context and the themes impact on particular contemporary practices in human resource management, by analysing the selection and development of professionals, the remodelling of school teams and the management of performance. The authors carefully blend advocacy with evidence to ensure relevance for both practitioner and academic audiences across the globe. The book would be of particular use to students on masters courses in educational leadership.
