THE government was urged to boost teachers’ wages after a new report exposed a dramatic decline in real-terms pay and escalating workloads within the further education (FE) sector today.
A study by the National Foundation for Educational Research revealed that FE teacher pay had plummeted by 11 per cent in real terms in the decade to 2021/22.
It found that FE teachers earned on average 23 per cent less than those who work elsewhere in the education sector, such as in specialised technical training.
