    • Workforce Review Project

    The Teachers' Pay and Workload Agreement 2017-19 ratified by the Teachers' Negotiating Committee (TNC) on 28 April 2020 committed to the progression of reviews in nine areas to address teacher concerns about workload and accountability and improve the effectiveness and efficiency of the education system.

    The official Agreement published under TNC Circular 2020/01 can be found here.

    The signed detailed Agreement provides greater clarification on the rationale and approach to each of the nine reviews and can be found here.

    The Workforce Review Project was established in early 2021 following a funding commitment from the Minister of Education of up to £1.2m over two years to progress the nine reviews. The agreed Project Initiation Document (PID) can be found here. The Workforce Review Project closed in March 2023.
