The Order directs that the provisions set out in the Document shall, save for paragraph 21.6, have effect from 1st September 1995. Paragraph 21.6 shall have effect from 1st September 1994 and the retrospective effect of this provision is authorised by section 2(4)(f) of the Act. Paragraph 21.6 provides that in certain circumstances teachers who on 1st September 1994 were being paid the Inner London Area Supplement under paragraph 18 of the School Teachers' Pay and Conditions Document 1993 shall continue to receive that supplement.

The Order applies to all school teachers (as defined in section 5(1) and (2) of the Act and including teachers employed by education associations, joint committees and the governing bodies of groups of grant-maintained and grant-maintained special schools) in England and Wales. By virtue of section 2(6)(a) of the Act, the remuneration of school teachers to whom the Order applies is to be determined and paid to them by local education authorities or, in the case of school teachers in grant-maintained or grant-maintained special schools, by the governing bodies of such schools in accordance with the scales and other provisions set out in the Document.
