The Oxford Diocesan Bucks School Trust-Governors’ Briefing Pack

19 7. Human Resources frequently asked questions and answers a. What happens to all of the staff? All staff are entitled to transfer, under TUPE regulations, to the Academy with their same terms and conditions as at present. ODBST continue to operate under nationally agree teachers pay and conditions and local authority schemes for non-teaching staff. b. Can you advise on any changes to pensions and employment details for staff? Current employees undergo a TUPE process which protects their pay and conditions at the point of transfer – this applies to both teaching and non-teaching staff. The ODBST is a member of the TPA and LGPS and has chosen to maintain the Teachers pay and Conditions as set out in the latest STPCD. Non-teaching staff continue to be paid using Green Book and local salary scales (where applicable). c. Can you advise on the training and support for our school admin/bursar with regard to monthly budgeting/finance system? All our bursars get extensive training, and the finance team provides half-termly meetings/briefings for finance managers to come together to discuss their work. We have finance team members who will work in schools where there are particular needs. d. What support is there for schools with recruitment? Our HR team will support schools with day-to-day recruitment queries. In terms of selection processes, the ODBST would support any leadership recruitment but we tend to find that schools want to manage other roles internally.
