How to check if I need to pay back student loan?

Hi I have noticed that I have had some money taken off me this month (for the first time) from student loan but I didn't think I would as I only earn 5p more than the minimum wage (£8.26 and I work 40 hours per week). I have worked overtime this month but still didn't think I earned enough to have student loan deducted. My income was around £1866.76 this month (before deductions are taken off). Usually my income is around £1300 (before deductions are taken off).

    This would lead to a student loan repayment of around £25 on plan 1, nothing on Plan 2 and about £6 on a post grad loan.
