Members of one of Jersey's largest teaching unions have accepted the government's multi-year pay offer.
The NASUWT surveyed its members on the States Employment Board's latest offer of an 8% rise and a one-off £1,000 payment in 2024, plus pay increases in line with inflation for 2025 and 2026.
A 7.9% uplift for 2023, rejected by the teaching unions, was applied in August and backdated to last January.
Union members have been told the survey was closely run, with 62% of the island's NASUWT members taking part.
Channel 103 understands the vote was so close it had to go before the NASUWT's national action committee for a decision.
Of those who took part in the ballot, 31% said they were happy for the offer to be accepted as it stands, with another 21% saying while they weren't happy with it, they thought it should be accepted.
However, 47% of the voting members wanted to see the offer rejected.
An NASUWT official said while the union will no longer be in dispute over pay, its issues regarding teachers' workloads remain unresolved.
“Teachers on Jersey are long overdue an increase in pay as part of their fight for fair and reasonable working conditions. There must be no delay from the SEB in implementing this award.
The NEU teaching union voted to reject the multi-year offer and went ahead with a planned three-day strike last week.
