• Sir Craig Tunstall earns more than double the salary of the Prime Minister
• As head of eight academies, he is Lambeth Council's best paid employee
• Although academies set their own budgets, council foot bill for salaries
• Lambeth top six employees earned £1.3million as lower positions were cut

Sir Craig’s package made him Lambeth council’s best-paid employee. His salary is around 80 per cent higher than the council’s chief executive and around double that of the other directors in the borough.

Sir Craig is executive head of the Gipsy Hill Federation, a group of eight primary schools that are still council-run.

A few weeks ago Lambeth council launched its tough choices website with one central message: between 2010 and 2018, its core government funding will have been cut by 56% and in a bid to save more than £40m this year, 500 out of 3,000 staff will be laid off – adding to the 1,000 who have already been made redundant since 2010. Among other changes, Lambeth plans to raise council tax by 3.99%.
