Either way, you’ll still have to do teacher training.

Consulting exec. 10k

Ridiculous income, but that's the market. Long hours, high pressure, a lot of time away from home.

DP takes home 4.5k

The quicker you get started with teacher training, the better then. What do you want to teach?

BasicDad · 01/04/2023 18:13

@misslele yes

After tax, not including any bonus months which are also eye watering. Great industry if you can get into it and fit into the pace and culture. It's not for everyone.

NHS Band 2 (top) - I get £1600 on average working nights after tax, NI, pension and union.

Nepmarthiturn · 01/04/2023 20:56

I don't understand OP. What is the point of you knowing people's salaries if you haven't even asked what their job is? How will this help you to change role?

And why are you asking what their gross pay is when they post net pay etc when you can just tap the figures into one of the many online tax calculators to work this out yourself?

Such a weird post.

lpeez · 01/04/2023 21:28

You need a C at gcse maths to teach. Even if you are a graduate. And in English language

Nepmarthiturn · 01/04/2023 22:20

Why would somebody think teaching is an appropriate career choice if they didn't meet even those basic standards of the lowest pass mark in core subjects, at the basic, compulsory level of education?

Very true, just want to work my way up and can't afford to get no pay at all

Show quote history

Op you can’t work your way up from a ta to a teacher. You need very specific qualifications, it’s not a career path where you get promoted from ta to teacher.

it seems you’ve no idea and haven’t even bothered to take five mins ti google what’s required to qualify as a teacher?

Seriously thinking of going off this app you ask the most simple question and will get attacked, if you don't like or agree, scroll past! Not hard

I again thank all of you honest and genuine people. Appreciate your honesty

SpeckledlyHen · 02/04/2023 12:46

No one is attacking you. You asked an extremely vague and irrelevant question. I think what you meant to ask is ‘how much do I need to earn a year to get x amount per month’ but that wasn’t at all clear in your op. As so many other people told you more details would have helped as no one here is a mind reader. Also there are loads of online salary calculators you can use that will give you this information.

Peggottythecat · 02/04/2023 12:48

Sure it depends on what qualifications and experience you have?! Very weird question.

merryhouse · 02/04/2023 14:43

Thing is, OP, it's not a straightforward question. So far as I can make out, you're asking what people's take-home pay is so that you can work out what a take-home pay would be for a particular salary.

Why don't you just ask: "what would be the take-home pay per month for someone on [£25k - or whatever] a year?"? - because that's the kind of thing you want to know.

And even then, it depends on your tax code, pension, loan repayments...

The really straightforward question is

"what does a newly-qualified teacher get each month?"

And as everyone else has said, you should be able to tot up your own deduction liabilities and use an online calculator. If you can't be bothered even to do that, I suggest teaching is not for you.

BelindaMelinda · 02/04/2023 19:19

People's gross salary and net take home will tell you nothing though op.

I'm on £31k but I 'only' take about £1600 home each month because I have lots of deductions - pension, insurances through a work scheme, sharesave etc. Plus I have the married person's tax allowance thing on my taxcode.

Just go on netsalarycalculator.com.

Willowtre1 · 02/04/2023 19:26

£2900 after tax

snowbellsxox · 02/04/2023 19:29

BluebellBlueballs · 30/03/2023 20:43

£3k a month net. Manager level.

I also run a microbusiness on ebay which nets around £700 a month... my fun money

Pls can you tell me more about the eBay side

I'm a teacher at the top of the main pay scale (have been teaching 13 years and have been on the same pay scale point for 7 years) and I take home just over £2k a month after tax, NI, pension and student loan. There's a teacher salary calculator on TES website that will tell you your take home pay according to point on pay scale, deductions etc.

You don't have to be a TA first, I wasn't. You can either do Teach First/Schools direct and learn on the job whilst earning and they pay your training fees or do a PGCE, after which you are a fully qualified teacher (still ECT for two years after that though). Some subjects come with a bursary that will be paid straight to you if you do PGCE so if it's one of those subjects I'd advise that route! But obviously you do incur student debt.

You should be on a lot more!

That's the trouble with (a) being a teacher and (b) getting to the top of the main pays scale - you end up stuck there. I'm in the same position!

hourbyhour101 · 03/04/2023 22:18

About £5000 per month. I am actually part time about 30hrs. I'm south west based.

Fairly high up in technical field.

Your job and also where your based will impact your salary massively.
