NASUWT calls for 'substantial' pay rise
Pay negotiations for Island teachers – between the unions and the Manx Government – are ongoing.
That's been confirmed by the Department of Education, Sport and Culture following calls from the NASUWT for a 'substantial' pay award.
The union claims teachers' pay is lagging behind the UK and other crown dependencies and staff here can’t continue to be subjected to pay freezes.
Geraldine O'Neil is the local secretary:
