Which was later upped to 6.85% for the lowest paid staff. the scottish government insisted there was further potential scope for compromise, but said there was no additional funding available to improve whats on offer. fairness is a really important principle here. i value the teaching workforce. they do an incredible job. but we have limited resources and were trying to operate fairly. so the offer on the table to teachers is the same as has already been accepted by other local government worke...
