The hon. Gentleman might wish to raise that matter at Treasury questions next week, but what I can say to him is that this pay rise for teachers is much needed, will be welcomed and will do more to improve education right across England and Wales.

Many packaged bank accounts now come with travel insurance, but many people only discover what they are not covered for when they need to claim.
