A bolstered pay award has been secured for staff at West Thames College – its second this year.

The University and College Union (UCU) has reported that a 5 per cent consolidated pay award across the board has been agreed for 2022/23.

According to the union, a 3 per cent pay award was agreed in December and backdated to the start of term. However, it says that further negotiations have secured another 2 per cent, which will also be backdated to the start of term.

Adam Lincoln, UCU regional officer, said the deal was as a result of “determined organising” from members.
