It varies between LA's. IF you contact your LA they will be able to tell you how much it equates to in your area. HTH

For me it means extra paperwork claiming the money (it's a right faff) & I get it in arrears not in advance

As LucyLastik said, it varies between authorities.

Mine pays significantly less than my normal hourly rate.

LucyLastik · 19/07/2011 08:04

They generally do. I'm in pre-school and NEG is also significantly less than our hourly rate. For a 3 hour session it comes nowhere near to even matching it.

KatyMac · 19/07/2011 08:21

Mine pay significantly more

Booh · 19/07/2011 12:05

Mine is less, £7.80 for three hours, and I would normally charge £16ish. So its not financially viable, plus I don't want the extra paperwork or hassle.......
