Teachers’ pay talks
PA Wellington *" Primary school teachers should find out this week whether they. - have gained pay parity with their postprimary colleagues. The New Zealand Educational Institute presented its case to the Government Service Tribunal early last week for the difference between the two services’ pay rates to. be removed. The institute’s president, Mr David Stewart, said last evening that a decision was expected later this week.
The, extra increment was given to post-primary teachers to boost staff recruitment and retention. Last year the N.Z.E.I. argued that it should be, abolished because of the similar primary service staff problems it caused-. The appeal last year was rejected. This year the N.Z.E.I. is arguing on a relativity basis and wants primary ' and post-primary teachers with similar qualifications and experience to be paid the same rate.
