School Support Staff Negotiating Body: Public Appointments
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Education, what her timetable is for appointing a new Chair of the School Support Staff Negotiating Body.
Answered by Catherine McKinnell
The government values and recognises the professionalism of the entire school workforce. School support staff play a vital role in children’s education and are crucial to ensuring we give children the best possible life chances.
The School Support Staff Negotiating Body (SSSNB) will mean that employers and employee representatives come together to negotiate terms and conditions and pay for school support staff, to ensure that support staff are properly recognised and rewarded for the work they do.
My right hon. Friend, the Secretary of State for Education plans to follow the usual public appointments process and appoint a Chair for the SSSNB after primary legislation receives Royal Assent.
