FF/FG coaltion after the next election?

1 secondary teacher in every 4 earns more than 65k according to a link posted earlier in the Croke Park 2 thread by Firefly .

The TUI are the only teacher's Union to date who have rejected CP 2 , the pay scales can be accessed at www.tui.ie - the basic scale rises to € 59,395 after 25 years - without allowances , the details of such allowances are also on the website.

The pay levels with allowances are what matters.

The pay levels with allowances are what matters.

Absolutely , that's why I referenced www.tui.ie which gives the allowances as well as the basic salary scale.

It appears likely that the 1 in 4 ratio that applies to ASTI members earning over € 65 k applies equally to TUI members.

Interestingly I saw a post on another site where a teacher had withdrawn from a higher diploma course on the basis that such a degree & the extra allowance that comes with such a degree would bring him over the 65 k threshold , something that will become more prevalent perhaps ?
