No idea haha. But schools will know which category they fall into, which is why we suggest teachers check with them.

@laurahermionetennant92 this is the same amount as for London fringe. Is that correct? and if so could you just combine the two to say the rest of England?

They are definitely meant to be the same (thanks for checking though). If schools are specifically labelled London fringe and rest of England I think we need to keep the distinction as Yorkshire is going to feel very different from Croydon.


Check the region you will be working in with the school employing you.

### Working part time as a teacher

You can work part time, but your salary must meet the threshold for a skilled worker visa. There are 2 requirements:

* your part-time salary must be at least £20,960
* your part-time salary must be at least £23,200
* the full-time equivalent of your salary must meet the minimum set for your region and status (for qualified and unqualified teachers)

Schools have some flexibility in how they set salaries. You may be able to negotiate a different rate of pay if the salary on offer does not meet the skilled worker visa requirements.

@laurahermionetennant92 as above the amount is the same for rest of England and London fringe. Are they meant to be the same?
