We have in our review of the Magistrate grade included an examination of other professional judicial/ legal grades to see whether our proposals for Magistrates call for corresponding adjustments to the pay scales of those grades. The grounds for amending the criteria for appointment of Magistrates are however inapplicable to the other professional judicial/legal grades and no corresponding adjustments are therefore recommended.
9.13 Master (Prisons) (16.14)
44 posts
The existing pay scales for this grade are basically related to those of teachers in government and aided schools. The pay scale for Senior Master (Prisons) is equated with Senior Assistant Master. The maximum point for Master (Prisons) equates with that of Assistant Master, while the minimum is five points higher than that of Certificated Master to take into account the requirement of three years' teaching experience and the nature of the job (i.e. responsibility for security of prisoners in the classroom, an element of danger as a regular factor in their working conditions, working longer hours than other teachers and not having normal school holidays and teaching pupils of a wide age range and widely differing standards of academic ability). We recommend that the existing relativities be maintained and therefore propose the following adjustments :
