Hi Chris, I think I was there when you were... The school have made me an offer but I do not know whether it is a good offer or whether I can negotiate for a better one and how to go about this.
Do you have any advice? Does anyone else for that matter please, I have been offered a salary and accommodation and medical etc, but the salary is not what I thought it would be, do they expect you to negotiate? And also, is it usual for you to get a living allowance as well? I would like to work there but I don't want to be selling myself short and getting a really low wage, so if anyone can tell me the averages for a teacher who is at the moment in my first year of teaching - so by september it will be my second and I will be fully qualified with QTS and QTLS status.
Thank you.
