I currently work part time (three days a week) and have recently done a few extra days teaching. I'm on threshold two, any idea how much I'll be paid for a day's work?
Thanks

Supply rates, ime, are around £115 - £125 per day.

See if you can get yourself self-employed rather than through an agency. The agencies charge £200 to schools and then pay £120 to teachers.

It's outrageous. Teachers should be paid 195th of their annual salary for one day's teaching.

Hang on, re-read your post. Your LEA should pay you your daily rate (annual salary divided by 195).

doesn't usually include allowances (SEN, TLR etc)

IME, supply rates were pretty much equivalent to a 2-4 year teacher's salary.

Some places, eg Surrey LEA, will pay you equivalent to your points, so if you have lots of experience, you can earn more. Other places tend to pay an average.

It's a pretty cushy arrangement - you walk away at the end of the school day and never have to plan lessons or do any marking (in secondary). If you can get on the books of a good school, you will be well supported when it comes to discipline issues.

Thanks all.
Its supply work in my own school, so will be my usual daily salary. Just wasn't sure how to work that out. Stll not sure whether it will be 195th of my salary or about £120. Maybe that works out about the same, but at least I'll be able to work it out now.

By the way, all the supply teachers in our school are regulars and ALL do planning and marking. Maybe thats a primary thing

It depends on the job, lbm. If it's a short notice job, you can't expect any planning. IME, though, primary includes marking of the work done that day - but it's the kind of marking you can do in 15 minutes while the kids are doing something else. You wouldn't be expected to spend time after school marking.

In secondary, you just show up for lessons. Everything else is done by the regular teacher.
