Councils and most maintained schools in England, Wales and Northern Ireland pay support staff on this spine; each employer decides which pay points a role sits on. Annual figures are for a full-time (37-hour), all-year post — term-time and part-time staff are paid a proportion of them. Hourly rates are for a 37-hour week. Pay point 2 was removed, so the spine now starts at point 3. Academies, independent schools and private nurseries may use their own pay.

Frequently asked questions

How much does a cleaning supervisor earn?

We do not yet hold enough verified salary evidence to publish a cleaning supervisor figure. Rather than estimate, we show live vacancies so you can see what employers are actually advertising.

Does cleaning supervisor pay vary by area?

It can, but we only publish area differences where we have enough evidence for that area — we never apply a regional multiplier to invent a local figure.

What pay framework applies to a cleaning supervisor?

There is no single pay framework that generally applies to this role: pay depends on the employer, the contract and the nation. Use the advertised salary evidence on this page and check the individual advert.
