Explanatory note
(This note is not part of the Order)
This Order refers to a document entitled “School Teachers' Pay and Conditions Document 1989” published by Her Majesty’s Stationery Office, which is obtainable from Government book shops and through booksellers.
The Order, which comes into force on 27th June 1989, directs that the provisions set out in the Document shall have effect as regards paragraph 18 (London Area allowances) from 1st July 1988; as regards the percentage and overall limits for incentive allowances set out in Annex A and Table 2 of Annex B to Appendix I from 1st August 1989; as regards other provisions relating to remuneration from 1st April 1989; and as regards other conditions of employment from 27th June 1989.
The Order applies to all school teachers (as defined in section 7(1) of the Teachers' Pay and Conditions Act 1987, amended to include teachers in grant-maintained schools by paragraph 39 of Schedule 12 to the Education Reform Act 1988).
By virtue of section 3(6)(a) of the Teachers' Pay and Conditions Act 1987 (as amended by paragraph 38(4) of Schedule 12 to the 1988 Act) the remuneration of teachers to whom the Order applies is to be determined, and paid by local education authorities, or in the case of grant-maintained schools by the governing body of the school, in accordance with the scales and other provisions set out in the Document; by virtue of section 3(6)(b) of the 1987 Act the provisions of the Document relating to other conditions of employment have effect as terms of the contract of employment of teachers to whom the Order applies.
The Order contains a statement that it gives effect without any material modification to recommendations of the Interim Advisory Committee on School Teachers' Pay and Conditions and consequently, by virtue of section 3(2) of the said Act of 1987, the Order is subject to annulment in pursuance of a resolution of either House of Parliament.
The retrospective effect of the Order as regards remuneration is authorised by section 3(5)(f) of the Teachers' Pay and Conditions Act 1987.
The Order revokes the Education (School Teachers' Pay and Conditions) Order 1988, with a saving for those provisions in the School Teachers' Pay and Conditions Document 1988 which will not be superseded until 1st August 1989.
