Threshold payments
Currently schools claim back money from the Government to pay for those teachers who have
successfully crossed the 'Threshold' (on a termly basis I think).
My belief is that this was for the first two years of the scheme. Does anyone know if this is likely
to continue to be funded from Central Government?
If not, how will schools continue to pay this? I don't think my primary school could afford even the
first year's cost unless we receive support for this via the budget (our reserve would be more than
wiped out).
I have had a quick search on the DfES website, but I couldn't find much about the 'funding' issues.
Does anyone know?

Like most of the half-a**ed schemes this gov't has introduced, it's likely that the funding will
phase out and your school will be up the creek. More experienced teachers will be released in favour
of cheapies and the shortage will worsen.

Your right about the timescales. I don't actually know the answer as to continuance of funding, but
it was clear that the Government was hoping not to have to face the question.
In my area there is an 'understanding' that the funding will continue. After all, it's going to
be politically disastrous if central funds are withdrawn, with the DfES, Treasury and the Local
Authorities in virtual civil war. Not a very good situation in the lead up to a general
election in just a few years now, what with Health, Transport etc continuing to fail to
deliver. The cost of keeping the Education field relatively quiet is cheap by comparison. Or is
this just a touch cynical?

Good, experienced teachers will never be released in my school. OK, I'm rather partial to NQTs, but
it's not the only factor we are interested
in.

Hmmm, just read my post - it sort of implies that we'll imprison our teachers forever...I'm sure you
know what I mean :-)
