Scotland’s Education Secretary has made the fifth pay offer to teachers as the latest threat of strikes looms over the country’s schoolchildren as part of a long running pay dispute.
Under the plans announced by Shirley-Anne Somerville on Tuesday evening, teachers earning up to £80,000 would see their pay go up by 6% from April 2022, and then another 5.5% from the start of the 2023 financial year.
