Is this salary going to be pro-rata?

17 replies

Extendedoctopustentacles · 02/01/2024 11:31

I have seen a job advert with the following details advertised:

"37 Hours per week - 8.30am to 4.30pm Monday to Thursday (4.00pm on Friday)
Term Time + 3 Week (PD Days + 2 weeks administration hours)
Scale 6 (£15.17 - £16.26 per hour)
Per Annum (£26,346 - £28,240) dependent on experience and length of service"

It's an education job and most other jobs like this have the salary listed as in brackets as (actual ££ - ££). This one doesn't and there is also no mention of a pension.

Can anyone help me please? Will this salary be pro-rata?

Thanks

Yes most probably.

Baghelpplease · 02/01/2024 11:33

Those are full time hours, are they not? So unless the full time hours are eg 40 not 37 that would be the full time wage.

It seems to be a full time job so why would the salary be pro rata? Confused

It says term time + 3 weeks so there'll be 10 ish weeks per year where the OP works no hours.

Because of the holidays I would expect you to be paid a pro rata amount of around 3/4 of the amount quoted.

But it's term time plus 3 weeks.

I'd email them or do the maths to check

Baghelpplease · 02/01/2024 11:36

I see

Yes, that's very confusing

titchy · 02/01/2024 11:38

You'd be working 42 weeks, plus should get holiday pay. That should be a further five weeks, plus any bank hols that fall in the holidays, so a further week and a half). Salary should therefore be around 48.5/52 of that stated.

xyzandabc · 02/01/2024 11:39

It will be pro rated because it's full time hours but only 42 weeks a year (term time +3, assuming term time is 39 weeks), not 52.

You'll get approx 5.6 weeks A/L on top of that depending on contract so you will be paid for approx 47.6 weeks.

47.6/52= 0.915 FTE

So you could expect a salary of
26346 x 0.915= £24116 ish
Assuming you will start at the bottom of that band

xyzandabc Thank you. That is really helpful.

No because it will be illegal for the OP to not be paid any holiday.

Op you will likely get paid for 45/46 weeks

dingledells · 02/01/2024 11:45

Maybe the salary quoted is the actual wage. If you times the hourly rate by 37 hours and then weeks paid eg 46 then it looks like it's already prorated. Does the advert say FTE or similar?

Where did I say the OP wouldn't be paid for holidays? I said the OP would have 10 weeks they wouldn't be working as the previous poster had missed the line where it stated it was term time + 3 weeks. I was responding to someone who said it was full time. Clearly it isn't.

Azandme · 02/01/2024 11:49

Education salaries are usually what they quote. You get paid 12 times a year.

That is literally all it says!

15 pounds an hour, multiplied by 37 hours a week, multiplied by 52 weeks a year would be 28k.

TTO plus 3 plus 5.6 leave is 46.6 weeks, which would bring the lower salary to 26k. I think it's actual pay quoted.

MissKittyCat · 02/01/2024 12:24

If the minimum hourly rate is £15.17 and minimum salary is £26346 and 37 hours a week then the pay is for 47 weeks. Some will be paid holiday, so I would assume that is the actual salary you would receive.
