Moving to the reshaped structure
You will move to the reshaped structure on your current spinal column point (SCP), unless you are on a lower SCP than the starting point of your equivalent grade.
If this is the case, you will move to the starting SCP of your new grade, and receive the relevant salary increase.
You will move to the next SCP in the grade in April 2026, again in April 2027, and so on until you reach the top of your grade.
The Guide to Pay and Grading gives examples of how you will move to the reshaped structure and how you will progress through your grade.
