A primary school principal claims their latest government offer is bittersweet.

It includes a six percent base salary increase in July, and further rises next year.

There's also lump sum payments and allowances for cultural leadership and professional coaching.

Auckland's Laingholm School Principal Martyn Weatherill Kate Hawkesby says it's a step in the right direction - but there's still more to do.

He says more funding is still needed for learning support.
