How much do Teaching Assistants get paid

Teaching Assistants pay can differ depending on factors such as:
Experience: Teaching assistants with more experience may command higher salaries.
Qualifications: Those with relevant qualifications, such as a teaching assistant diploma, might earn more than those without.
School Type: The type of school (e.g., private, public) and its location can influence salary levels.
Role and Responsibilities: Teaching assistants with specialised roles or additional responsibilities may receive higher pay.

Education recruitment agencies can be a valuable resource for both Teaching Assistants and schools. Recruitment agencies often have a wide network of schools and can help connect teaching assistants with suitable positions. By working with an agency, teaching assistants have access to a broader range of job opportunities and potentially higher pay rates. Recruitment agencies often negotiate teaching assistants pay on their behalf to ensure they are compensated adequately for their work, at 4myschools, we always strive to negotiate the pay teaching assistants deserve.

Once you reach 12 weeks in a role, both the school and 4myschools will be legally obliged to pay you according to the pay scale that the school would offer if they employed you directly. This is in line with the Agency Workers Regulations (AWR), which aim to ensure that agency workers receive the same pay and working conditions as permanent staff after 12 weeks in the same role.
