Some may guess who I am which is fine - changed name so that things are not directly traced back to me....
I am a teacher due to go up to the next level on my pay spine in September (for those who understand teachers' pay, it is the second level beyong the threashold - upper pay spine)
It is basically a formality in most schools (our head has said as much) and this year, myself and a few others are due for this pay rise.
Had meeting with boss this morning who said that he did not know whether he could recommend me for it as I my ;improvements; had to be 'substantial and sustained' and in his words, in the last 2 years, I have been either on maternity leave or on lond term sick (pregnancy related initially then post natal stress/sleep deprivation). The other people are going through automatically including one colleague who is just appalling.
I am sooooooooo annoyed and am about to look at my union website for the specific criteria that I need to show for 'substantial and sustained' improvements.
Just wondered about the legality of this - in performance related pay rises (which this effectively is) can this be done? Want to be armed with the facts.....
Many thanks
