The finance report, which is published during the talks on the new salary agreement, points to large gaps between the beginning and veteran teachers, an issue that is at the center of negotiations with the Ministry of Education and the Teachers' Union. As of last year, teachers towards the end of their career earn 3.4 times more than beginning teachers, and 2.3 times more when calculated for a full-time position.
