How much will the 6.5% add to my take home?

[Whyiseveryonesomean]

Trying to work out how much difference this will make per month, after deductions.

I know we didn’t do it for the money but I’m on the bones if my arse.

I know it’s unlikely to cover the lost wages from strike days this year!

Let’s say for a full time M6 teacher.

Multiply what you get by 1.065

It’s the deductions I can’t work out!

It depends on if you’re paying student loan or not. Try listentotaxman.co.uk and put in the new M6 pay, your pension (I think it’s 7%?) and whichever student loan you’re repaying (if you are). If you’re main pay scale are you going up a point too? Or able to apply for upper pay scale?

Does anyone know if the pay rise will apply to TLR?

There's a teacher pay calculator on TES, free to download. If you're OK with excel, it's quite straightforward to amend with the 6.5%. Or it might have been updated already.

Or Take Home salary calculator when you Google.

Yes it applies to TLRs according to published pay scales from the union.

My understanding is that the additional 2% compared to the 6.5% of the pay offer will cover most people's lost strike pay. So after a year you should just about break even.

You need to tell us which (if any) student loan plan you're on then, because the deductions differ quite a bit...

I’m not paying any student loan.
