ABSTRACT
This chapter explains how teachers of various schools in London face problems. The School of Economics was the first college in London to establish 1,000 a year as minimum salary for full-time Professors. Some of the teachers of the School felt doubtful about educational allowances. These first educational allowances were on a modest scale but in 1927-8 the School made a general improvement of teachers' remuneration, with a new salary scale for full-time Professors. These allowances applied to the administrative staff as well as to all teachers. In another five years, the Governors had come to realize that the regular workers in the School included not teachers and administrators only, but porters, refectory staff and others on whose service the comfort of everyone depended. They established for such persons both a Group Pensions Scheme and educational allowances for children between fourteen and nineteen in regular attendance at a post-primary educational institution of recognized standing.
