This is another post that we need to keep bumped to the first page -- it's always being asked.

:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

Here's a link for pay scales, by the TES -- quite simple to use. I clicked on "Qualified teachers, England & Wales, Excluding London & Fringe" (I live half an hour out of London, so not on the fringe):

Regarding whether or not you'll be paid as a qualified teacher . . . it's up to each school to decide:

"The governing body decides where on the scale an unqualified teacher should start, and may also pay an additional allowance on top of this. Trainee teachers following an employment-based route to qualifed teacher status may be paid on the qualifed or unqualified teachers' pay scale" (from TES website).

Although I was qualified in the US, I was obviously not qualified here, but they paid me as if I were from the first day, at the top of the QUALIFIED Main Scale (M6). Don't assume that the scale is the final word -- the school will make you an offer.

Being paid as qualified made a difference of about £7,000 more per year.

Another scale, from the N.U.T. website -- you select all the specifics and it tells you what you could earn, including SPECIAL NEEDS EDUCATORS.

Don't know why my userid didn't show, but that was me -- English teacher.

Just so you know who to ask if there are questions . . .
