  • What was claimed Headteachers on average earn £95,000. Our verdict This is close to the average salary of a secondary school headteacher in England. The average salary of all headteachers at state schools in England is £74,100. Headteachers on average earn £95,000. This is close to the average salary of a secondary school headteacher in England. The average salary of all headteachers at state schools in England is £74,100. “Teachers are already paid above the average wage, with most earning nearly £40,000 or more – while head teachers on average receive £95,000.” A column published in yesterday’s Daily Express, both in print and online, said: “Teachers are already paid above the average wage, with most earning nearly £40,000 or more – while head teachers on average receive £95,000.” In 2021/22, the average salary for all teachers working in state schools in England was £42,358. This includes classroom teachers, leadership teachers and headteachers. The average salary of a classroom teacher in 2021/22 was £38,982. However, it’s not accurate to say that headteachers on average receive £95,000. This is close to the average salary of a secondary school headteacher in England, which in 2021/22 was between £95,000 and £98,000 depending on the type of state secondary school. For all state school headteachers in England, including primary and special educational school headteachers, the average salary was £74,100. We’ve contacted the Daily Express and will update this piece if it responds. In December 2022, education secretary Gillian Keegan similarly claimed that the average salary of a headteacher was £95,000 in an interview with LBC. The BBC reported at the time that Ms Keegan later clarified she was referring to secondary school headteachers.
