Wondering Staffroom is a community-built international teacher salary tracker. It exists because many teachers move overseas without clear, trustworthy information about what international teaching packages are really worth. Schools advertise “competitive salaries” and “excellent benefits”, but it can be hard to compare offers between countries – or even between schools in the same city.
The site collects anonymous international teacher salary data so you can see what others in similar roles are actually earning. Each submission includes details such as basic salary, currency, housing or accommodation allowance, flights, medical insurance, bonuses and other benefits. Over time, this builds a clearer picture of what fair pay looks like in different regions.
Every salary record on Wondering Staffroom comes from an international teacher or school leader who chose to share their package. We do not sell data and we do not ask you to create an account. Your submission is stored securely and shown only as part of the wider dataset – with school names removed from public views.
The aim is not to name and shame individual schools, but to make the international education ecosystem more transparent so teachers can plan their careers with realistic information.
Get occasional updates when we publish new salary insights, country guides or resources about international teaching. No spam – just practical information for teachers and leaders considering a move abroad.
We aim for 1–2 emails a month, focused on international teacher salaries and benefits.
