Education Secretary Gillian Keegan says teachers are in the top 10% of earners in some areas. Is she right?

Ms Keegan said in the interview that "the average salary of a classroom teacher is £39,000".show that state school classroom teachers in England were paid a mean average salary of £38,982 in 2021 . This compares with £39,009 in Wales and £40,026 in Scotland.

Speaking to Channel 4 on 22 December, Ms Keegan clarified the £95,000 figure referred to secondary school head teachers, which would be accurate."My cousin's just started teaching and she's on £28,000. She lives in Knowsley… it's a good career, it's probably in the top 10% of earners in some parts of the country," Ms Keegan said in the interview.

To be in the top 10% of earners across the country, a full-time employee would have to earn a monthly salary of at least £5,090,This would be more than £61,000 a year. It means that 90% of full-time employees across the country earn less than this amount. As a smaller local authority, the ONS do not have figures for the salary that would get you into the top 10% in Knowsley. But figures show that you needed to earn £43,050 to even get into the top 20% in Knowsley in 2022.This was another claim made by the education secretary on LBC.In this instance, the mean average teacher salary is lower than the mean UK average salary across all professions.
