Part-Time Work and Tax

Anyone know about personal tax allowances?

I work 0.3 of a working week and my annual salary, on my pay slip is approx £11k.

Does that mean I should only pay tax on £1k (after personnal allowance) OR should I be paying tax as if I was working full-time i.e. approx £38k?

Thanks

you pay tax on what your earn


so if you earn 11,000 in the whole tax year, you pay tax on 1,000 at 20% i.e. £200 for the tax year 2014-15

Don't give Osborne and Balls ideas!

Interestingly Germany has a system whereby non-taxable income is included purely for the purposes of working out your tax rate, so that if the non-taxable income would have taken you into a higher tax bracket then your taxable income is taxed at that higher rate. As I say, don't give then any ideas on that front.
