The result of the ballot of SSTU members is likely to be known early in July 2006. It is proposed that every teacher will receive a minimum of a 9.0% increase over two years giving faster access to salary increases than ever before. Also on offer is additional DOTT time for primary school teachers, Heads of Learning Area and Level 3 Primary Principals.
