Every figure below comes from a real teacher's own post โ and every one links to its source so you can check it yourself. This is a record of what people reported, in their own words.
Hand-checked monthly figures with city, school type and the exact source post. Includes the traps people fall into when comparing offers.
Specific ways teachers report being caught out โ each one with the posts that show it. We do not publish frequency rankings; we tested that method and it was not reliable.
Tick what your own contract says and see which documented traps apply to you.
Documented situations teachers reported โ with a result where one is known. These are the problems that never show up in the contract wording itself.
Who people turn to when it goes wrong, and how those cases actually ended.
Every figure here comes from a post a real teacher wrote, and each one links back to that post so you can read it in full. Where the sample is too small to generalise, we say so instead of rounding it up.
