How spread out pay is
ONS published the 25th percentile (£30,785) but not the 75th, so we cannot show the middle half of the range for other educational professionals n.e.c.
The mean for other educational professionals n.e.c (total pay divided by the number of employees) is £48,218, which is £9,104 (23.3%) higher than the median. When the mean is above the median, a smaller number of higher salaries are pulling the average up. For all UK full-time jobs the mean is 24.3% above the median, so the gap for other educational professionals n.e.c is smaller.
