School banding criticised by teachers in TES survey
Education reforms have "decreased morale and motivation" among school teachers and heads, a survey has found.
Almost three-quarters of the 941 respondents said recent changes had not been for the best and cited extra pressure and increased criticism.
Meanwhile 62% of teaching staff and 75% of heads said a new banding system had not improved standards in schools.
The Welsh government said changes can "take time to bed in" and more support would be offered to teachers.
