the contours of the increase in teachers’ salaries are still unclear

The government has committed to an increase in teachers’ salaries at the start of the 2023 school year. For five years, Mary Laferriere teaches in a priority education school. A responsibility too little paid according to her. “Today, I have a net salary of 1,700 euros net excluding bonus”explains Marie Laferriere. She could benefit from the revaluation, an essential measure according to her, even if the modalities are still unclear.

School teachers in France earn 19% less than their colleagues in OECD countries. After 15 years of career, they are even among the lowest paid. A reality that Alice sees Remundo looking at his payslips after 14 years of career. She receives 2,072 euros net per month. To increase teachers, the ministry plans in particular to entrust them with new tasks in exchange for remuneration. For Alice Remundowhich already handles a dual-level class, this is unrealistic. The Ministry of Education and the unions will negotiate the issue of wages until next February.
