Fte salary calculation

Mathematical wizards,

Missus is looking at a job in a school which pays circa £15k full time equivalent.

Trying to work out what the actual take home would be working 6 hours a day 5 days a week and obviously all the holidays associated with schools and paid monthly!

Well, if the standard work week is 37.5 hours, this is an 80% appointment and would pay about £ 12 k a year before tax etc

Yeah its a funny calculation because of being term time only, my wife was on a similar FTE wage when working in a school a couple of years ago, working 4.5 hours a day from my memory she earnt c.£600 per month net.

There’s some calculators online

No it’s not. That would only be relevant if the OP’s wife was working a ’52 week job’, but only doing term time. It’s as simple as dpfr said – what’s the working week, what proportion of that will she work. Everyone has the holidays, so it’s an irrelevance in the calculation

After that you can use this salary calc to work out what she gets in hand.

You need to know what the standard working hours for that full time role are, and whether they apportion things for term time only or not.

Some roles (e.g. teachers) are 1.0 FTE even though they “only” work during term time. Other roles (e.g. support staff, classroom assistants) are often shown as working c. 0.85FTE even though they work “full time” in term time.

Surely the best people to ask would be the HR department for the school / local authority?
