It is now illegal to discriminate against part-time workers in the UK. Many of our tutors are part-time, hourly-paid staff. They are legally entitled to a pay increase. This could lead to our pay budget being increased by about 40%.
Instead of being disappointed at the fact that the part-timers have been exploited for years, the authorities are just sacking them.
We believe that we can explore other funding sources, make economies elsewhere, and make some very careful cuts, so as to preserve a lot of the teaching.
