Teaching maths or science

[AngloScot]

Im thinking about going into teaching when i am older. What are (roughly) the salaries available these days for teaching maths, chemistry or physics at each level of education, eg gcse, a-level, degree level...

It depends where you live.

Scottish State school salaries are on a common scale. I've no idea about the English salary structure.

Scottish starting salary is currently �18000 rising to �28707 in 6 years. After that you can study to become a 'Chartered Teacher' to a maximum of �35199.

Further and Higher Education scales are different.

Pathetic salaries for such an important profession, I think you'll agree.

If you're in it for the money then I suspect that teaching might not be the career for you :-)

Suspect what you want, I agree with you stevie21, but I never said i would be in it for the money. You did say if so I cannot acuse you of judging me, it wouldnt be fair... but cheers anyway. :)
