Network Manager Pay

[hillskill]

I'm at Network manager in sec school of 1200. Currently on 26K but hopefully moving to next scale in April which will push me up to around 28K. I'll be pretty happy with this going on what I have read here.

Although not a network manager, I thought I'd throw my two'penneth's worth in.

Assistant Network Manager, Secondary School, approximately 1250 kids, 130 staff. 400 PC's 100 Laptops.

Currently Salary is Scale 6 on the NJC pay scales (approximately £21k to £23k).

I would say my pay at my new school (starting 20th) is around a Network Managers pay, i'll be on 28k as a Senior ICT Techie

[hillskill]

28k for senior tech in schools is very high- whats your nwmanager on? R u based near London?

hi cookie_monster,

sorry not up with all the terms yet, what is the single status review (tried google -something to do with equal pay?), as far as i am aware all the information i presented about comparative pay in this sector was dismissed as it varies so much, as was extra resonsibility -which was already covered in job spec.

I am under the impression it was for retaining my services that the regrade was awarded. Of course i may never know the full facts and reasoning behind it.

Derbyshire haven't been done yet but every council have to go under a review to try to align pay so positions are paid the same nationwide, it's also to give some positions that have been traditionally low paid an increase. I think that's what it's all about anyway.

Derbyshire County Council - Single Status

Currently they say 'Single Status does not apply to Teachers, schools employed employees and Soulbury and Youth Workers.' but that might change.

ah i see, dident even know about that, as long as they equal the pay based on an average then i would hope it would go up again, something to keep an eye on thankyou

@Landi where about are you in Lancashire? I'm at a school in Lancashire as Network Manager and i'm on scale 5.

Dont have a network maanger, just me, I run the whole shop

@dezt

Im in the Liverpool area, scale 5 as i was on is stupidly low wage for a network manager, there are standard tecnicians on more then that in lots of areas, go for a review and good luck!

Better mention

Single Status is to make sure that pay with in LA is same across all jobs and different sexes. So a network manager in one school in LA is paid same another network manager in same LA.

The national pay scheme for school support staff is something very different
