I liked a lot of the posts from the paper, this one is the last at the moment

Newly qualified teacher
A newly qualified teacher (NQT) can expect to start on a salary of at least:
£20,133 outside London
Experienced teacher
The scale for good, experienced classroom teachers who have ‘crossed the threshold’ rises to:
£34,281 outside London

Then, depending on where your teaching career takes you, there are other pay scales to define what you receive. Currently, these include:
• advanced skills teacher pay scale: £34,938 min; £53,115 max • excellent teacher pay scale: £36,771 min; £43,860 max • leadership group pay scale: £34,938 min ; £104,628 max, and
Teaching and learning responsibility payments (TLRs) are paid to teachers who have significant additional responsibilities within the school. The payments are worth between £2,500 and £11,000 depending on the nature of the work.
In addition to your basic salary, you will also receive a range of benefits, including:
• teacher’s pension : the second-largest public sector pension scheme in the country
• holidays: more days than many people in other professions , although teachers work 195 days per year in school, and carry outwork during their holidays
• housing help: the key worker living programme helps key workers into home ownership, upgrade to family homes or rent at affordable levels.......
