    Don't you just love it when "professions" get tied up in their own jargon?

    Just how old is a "Key stage 1" child?

    As school budgets are based on "bums on seats" amongst other things these days, and so have nursery sections, it might help if you could create a table of age versus professional description.

    'Key stages' are universally recognised by anybody who works in education and probably a huge percentage of parents too. Plus if you google 'KS1 teacher' it tells you what it is as the first result.

    KS1 - yr 1+2, age 5-7
    KS2 - yr 3-6, age 7-11
    KS3 - yr 7-9, age 11-14
    KS4 - yr 10+11, age 15-16
    KS5 - yr 12+13, age 17-18

    This coming from somebody who tried 2 different uni. courses to find the subject that interested them just so that they could get a degree because they were sold the whole 'Go to Uni, get a better job' concept throughout their life by school and college.

    Needless to say, it doesn't always work out that way. Now I'm earning the same amount as a friend who didn't finish his GCSEs.

    Ditto :(

    Age 30, administrative work for local university, £18k rising to £20k after 3 years.

    I desperately need to earn more but I live in a town of two universities where employers would rather pay less to 18 year olds than hire someone with experience. (in comparison where I used to live in Lincolnshire I would be on 17k and the rent would cost 1/3 as much).
  • 18 years old. 14,000 a year. I am a Scheme Admin. Quite a few benefits, including discount on loads of shops. Been at my job three months and passed my probation the other day!!! WOO HOO! Just currently trying to save money so I can buy a house! Onwards and upwards!!!
  • 43. Professional Gambler (that is what I have on my mortgage as well!)
    Last year I took in 78k for the year. Last 5 year average is 92k.
    Love being my own boss
  • I'm a Police Sergeant.....earn just short of 40k a year but pay daft amounts into our pension. Appalling shifts and been punched, kicked, bitten and had knives pulled on me far to often but in a salary trap so can't look for anything safer

    28, self-employed Debt Collector

    £20k - £30k per/annum


    No benefits, just get threatened, chased and sometimes free cups of tea (if I am extremely nice, which is 99.9% of the time)


    P.s my debt level if somewhat ironic in its nature but as per a poster above, I was sold the whole "Go to uni" message when I was in limbo and because I had half an ounce of intelligence.


    So the Student Loan contributes to half of my debt + a few bad turns on the way in my discovery of life

    Same here and also sent links and screen prints of the offending spam posts to the ASA to see if it has broken any of their rules on false advertising/testimonials. :D
