As far as I am aware the Department of Education pays them the same as they would pay teachers in the public system. I dont know if the private schools top up the salaries but the state pays the lions share.Originally Posted by bobbysands81
In private primaries, the teacher's salaries are funded entirely from fees.

Correct.

That's what I was told but I didn't believe it.
I guess I should believe my sister from now on!
Sisters are always right!
Its actually impossible to state one way or the other. Private schools receive huge amounts of public money. That could all go toward infrastructure or it could supplement the wage big of the school where fees alone fall short.
You would need a detailed breakdown of each schools finances to determine what money is spent on what.

No, what you are referring to there is fee paying secondary schools. Standalone fee paying primary schools receive no subvention from the Department of Education whatsoever. There only Government 'support' would be their charitable status which means that contributions to them are not taxed. Those private primary schools which form a junior school to a fee paying secondary school obviously benefit from the infrastructure of the secondary school though.
In the traditional fee-paying secondary schools, the salaries of the bulk of teachers are paid by the department. However, if the school needs to hire teaching staff over and above their departmental allocation, they can offer contracts to further teachers and pay them from the fees income.

Yes, but the question asked was in regard to primary schools rather than secondary schools. The system for each being entirely different.
