Pay review. Job role change

[Si]

Its a crime what technicians are getting paid.  Looking at it from the outside now, I've realised that some of the stuff I had done at my school would, in the private sector, be coming under the role of Project Manager - a job you'd be getting ?30K+ for.  The sheer scope and responsibility of an IT Tech in schools these days is so vast I think technicians should be getting teachers wages if not more.

Hi sorry for only getting back to this now but I am sure you all don't need me telling you what it's like in September when you were transformed during the summer and got 255  new iPads and 15 new iMacs to setup.


I approached the principal towards the end of august about a review but understandably I was told it would be September before anything would be done about it (have to fit a two month holiday in). Well September is nearly half over and still nothing, I don't expect to hear anything soon either because we are getting inspected next week (not my fault and there was no mention of inspection 5 years ago or every year since when I started the requests)

Sorry about the rant

If you'd like to have a private chat, I was in the same situation only two years into my school and after a bit of a fight, ended up with what I wanted.
