The agreement prints two salary schedules, one for teachers hired on or after 1 July 2017 and one for the other group; this record is the former. Each is spread over three pages with one column per school year (22/23 to 25/26); the 2025-26 column is reproduced here.
- Soft spot: Read from the PDF text layer of the filed contract; the document is a scan whose text layer was produced by the scanner, so a figure may be mis-rendered.
