Full-time teacher, how to calculate the actual per hour, pay your take-home?

[newtothis15]

I was just wondering if a teacher in 50,000 salary would be the actual hourly rate calculated what you earn per hour?

Depends on how many hours you work!
There are no real " set" hours for teachers. There is the 1265 hours of directed time but then on top is the " plus any further hours to complete the professional duties" caveat that is the killer!

I agree, all teachers seem to work a totally different amount of hours. I’m on UPS3 and have a aTLR, so earning £50k. I arrive at 8.15 and leave by 4.30 every day and never take work home or work weekends. I do work through my lunch break though.
I see a LOT of posters on here who work crazy hours in comparison, much longer days in school and then taking loads home at evenings/weekends.

I am just trying to work out an hourly rate and see if working self-employed could be more efficient and more financially beneficial

What is your current situation- are you already a teacher on £50k and looking to go self employed doing something else?

Yes

Could you divide your monthly pay by the amount of hours you work then, to find out?

Work out your daily hours - so for me I am in school 8-4.30 on average sometimes later
So that's roughly 8.5hrs a day.
Then times that by 5 days
Then by 39 weeks
So I work roughly 1657.5hrs.
So if I was on £50k like you I would then divide 50,000 by 1657.5 to get my pre tax hourly rate
So roughly £30 per hour pre deductions.
You could take off lunch times as we aren't paid for them
But most people don't take a break for the whole of lunch so I count that in my working day
Hope that helps

Don’t forget to account for the loss of your teachers’ pension contributions, sickness and maternity pay.

I want to know how the hell you manage that. Same circumstances, but I work 4.30am - 5.30pm with a 1.5h break for morning and childcare stuff. Still "on" most evenings and working at least 3h on a weekend, not counting in the likes of open evening and parents' evening. Break and lunch are taken up by duties or so short I barely manage to wolf down a few bites and run to the loo.

My school is really hot on well-being and relatively chill. Reusing all last years planning so have none to do. I’m super organised so everything Inc resources is in easy accessible folders. We only have parents evening twice a year, and I only do one morning break duty a week, no lunch duties or anything. Three form entry so things like trips/experience days/parent sessions are split between three of us to organise. Three half hour assemblies a week that we don’t have to go to. Live marking is encouraged, so during a lesson like RE or history, once I’ve done my input I sit with a group of kids whilst my TA floats and I mark their maths/English books and cal them over for on the spot support. I don’t know. I just find it all very smooth.

Please help me . I want to become a teacher what are the ways to enter into primary teaching as secondary level teaching i experienced as TA i don't like it. I decided on primary. What are the common ways people are using? Please guide me!
