The McCrone Agreement, the name usually used for the "A Teaching Profession for the 21st Century" agreement, is an agreement about teachers' pay and conditions in Scotland. The agreement, in 2001, followed an independent committee of inquiry which reviewed teachers' pay and conditions, chaired by Professor Gavin McCrone. One of the key aims of the agreement was to ensure that teachers' working weeks would be limited to 35 hours though there is evidence that this has not been achieved.[1]
