The Department for Education awarded a contract to NFER for the evaluation of teachers' pay reforms, which came into force in September 2013.

The reforms abolished automatic pay progression for classroom teachers and introduced performance-related pay, giving schools greater freedom in setting pay and progression.

The evaluation will assess how schools are using these new pay freedoms, with the first progression decisions made in September 2014.

The contract value is £290,115.
