[To consider the outcomes of a review of the Adult Education Services contract to ensure that it continues to meet service needs]

Additional documents:

Decision:

1.      That the revised teaching contract and associated terms and conditions for Adult Education Wolverhampton (AEW) teaching employees be approved.

 

2.      That it be noted that the new teaching contract does not apply to senior managers or business-related roles within the service who would consistently receive NJC contracts of employment to reflect the nature of their duties.

 

3.      That it be noted that a Memorandum of Understanding has been developed with the University and College Union (UCU) to regularise future working arrangements.

 

Minutes:

Councillor Dr Michael Hardacre presented the report on a proposal to revise the contract and associated terms and conditions for Adult Education Wolverhampton teaching employees to provide equanimity and equality. The proposal had been negotiated with the trade unions who had signed the agreement that goes with it.  Councillor Dr Hardacre reported that the proposal should mean that Adult Education Wolverhampton could continue to upskill the city’s adults and young people over the age of 19 for the modern economy.

 

Resolved

1.    That the revised teaching contract and associated terms and conditions for Adult Education Wolverhampton (AEW) teaching employees be approved.

 

2.    That it be noted that the new teaching contract does not apply to senior managers or business-related roles within the service who would consistently receive NJC contracts of employment to reflect the nature of their duties.

 

3.    That it be noted that a Memorandum of Understanding has been developed with the University and College Union (UCU) to regularise future working arrangements.
