Today (Weds 22 Nov), education organisations NAHT, ASCL, NGA and WomenEd release their annual analysis of the gender pay gap in education.
This comes as the nation marks Equal Pay Day on Weds 22 Nov – the day in the year where women effectively, on average, stop earning relative to men.
The analysis shows that the pay gap between female and male secondary head teachers is the largest in 12 years, with women this year earning £3,908 less on average than their male counterparts.
The gap for primary heads has continued to narrow but still stands at £2,181 less for women, on average.
This is despite the existence of a 'national pay framework'.
