1. Employee Costs Teaching:

Total Staff Points calculation by formula
1235.2 + (6.1062 x roll)

NB: Changes in school roll will directly impact the total staff points available.

Staff points converted to salary applicable to scale points utilised.

Promoted Staff:
Points utilised based on fte and grade of promoted staff in post

Unpromoted Staff:
fte = (Total staff points – staff points utilised for promoted staff)/100

NB: If, as a result of job sizing, changes are made to promoted staff grades, this will have a direct impact on the unpromoted staff budget available.
Unpromoted salary budget = fte x Maximum Basic Scale Subject to adjustment to reflect actual salaries of staff in post

2. No

3. Not applicable
