- is focused on teaching and learning;
- requires the exercise of a teacher’s professional skills and judgement;
- requires the teacher to lead, manage and develop a subject or curriculum area; or to lead and manage pupil development across the curriculum;
- has an impact on the educational progress of pupils other than the teacher’s assigned classes or groups of pupils;
- involves leading, developing and enhancing the teaching practice of other staff.
- TLR 1 and 2 payments are permanent TLRs on the structure subject to a Safeguarding Sum, whereas a TLR 3 is a temporary payment for a defined period of time, piece of work or project.
