I am thinking of becoming a primary school teacher...

... and I have a few questions regarding salary please.

Firstly, can someone advise me how quickly the salary increases? I am a little worried that the starting salary is low, and I can not find information on how quickly it is likely to increase. All I have found are the pay-scales etc.

Secondly what exactly is the lead practitioner pay range, and how does one get onto that pay-scale? Is this available as a primary teacher?

Finally, if you put the time and effort in and work hard does this accelerate moving up the pay scales or is it a set increase each year?

Thanks in advance!
