A survey of 1,548 independent school teaching staff by the Association of Teachers and Lecturers (ATL) found that almost half (48.6 per cent) reported an increase in their school’s fees.
Only 3.9 per cent of the teachers said fees had not increased and only 0.3 per cent said they had fallen in their school. The remainder, 47.2 per cent, was unaware of their school’s fees situation.
Despite this, 43 per cent of the teachers said they had not been given a pay rise this year, while another 10 per cent were only getting between a zero and one per cent pay rise. Just under four in 10 (37.2 per cent) are getting between one and two per cent.
