 Posted: Sat Apr 16, 2005 10:57 am Post subject: Juniour high school salary |
 |
|
| I've been offered a full time job at a national juniour high school. I did turn it down as I plan to leave Japan. In a casual conversation one of the teachers mentioned that I would receive the same FIVE months bonus as the other teachers. This has certainly got me tempted. I was to shy or maybe too British to ask what the regular monthly salary actually was. I presume that all government schools pay the same. So I am wondering if anybody out there knows what the total annual salary is that I could expect. |

Average salary of public high school teachers (based on rank decided by age, qualifications and experience, usually from when you graduated from university)

Thank you very much PaulH. Wow, I was quite surprised at how much the older teachers get, but also at the modest wage that the younger guys make. I guess that it is so typical of Japan though.
I wonder what level I would be put on? 7 years teaching in Japan. 10 years in total. Graduated 15 years ago. I could either be on easy street or making less than the guys at NOVA. I guess I'll just have to be unbritish about it and just ask.  |

Mine was based on my age and not experience. I am earning 1.5 million more per year than the previous guy in the post. |
