Today in the chamber,  Huw asked a question to the Secretary of State for Education on pay for teachers. You can watch Huw's question here: https://goo.gl/fCFcKx and read below.

Huw:

Pay rises for teachers in schools in my constituency would be most welcome, but there is a concern that those rises will have to be met from the increase in funding that was delivered to schools in the summer. Are there plans, like there are with the NHS, to find a budget outside the existing school funding formula for those pay rises?

Damian: 

The teachers’ pay review body is deliberating at the moment. We have already given our evidence, as, of course, have the consultees. I point out that, since the spending review, an additional £1.3 billion has been found for school budgets.
