You'll also know that each education authority is different and a lot of schools are now operated in the private sector then? Everyone's different.

Mum was the finance manager for a high school for 25 years <cheers>

Hence, why I enjoy being a **** stirrer. Back in the day they had to sign on the dole during the summer holidays mate. Granted they never got money but they had to in order to get their stamp.

They dont need to sign on the dole mate. They are paid perfectly fine.

And a lot more than most professions.
 
Borrow this mate...

and I'll leave it here for anyone else that may require it <laugh>

Honestly your financial package at the scale you will be at is far better than most commercial roles in comparison. You just don’t want to accept it.

I will never deny I moved into education to get the best lay deal I could and I won’t deny I want to stay there.

Teachers don’t want to see that. You wouldn’t believe it how bad it is if you left the profession and went into the commercial world.

But then again. You have maybe not tried?

Your first hand experience might reflect what you are stating, but it doesn't reflect the national situation.

In the UK, the average teacher's salary is £30,019 p.a.

The average salary across all jobs is £38,131 p.a.

Employment terms and whether you are paid for 52 weeks or 10 months depends on who employs you. Some are paid for 52 weeks (including holidays). Others are paid for 10 months plus holidays - spread over 12 monthly payments.

And in essence you can’t compare average salary either because they are on pay scales.

As a teacher progresses to the scales it skews the statistics. I know this first hand. I worked for a very successful school who had a very good teaching base which meant we had staff who had been employed for many years.

Most where top of scale. No other profession in the commercial world has a pay scale template. So it’s hard to match.

But the reality is most teachers get to the toon of scale and they are paid perfectly fine. And pensioned well. And have fantastic holidays.

All be it they may work in them.
