All,
Thanks to the 46 of you who took the time to answer back so quickly.
Very
interesting results below:
Most gave me a range of what was thought appropriate - others just
reported their own staff costs percentage:
percentage number of schools
60 - 65%, max 70% 1
65% 1
65 - 75% 1
66 - 70% 1
65 - 80% 1
70% 7
70 - 80% Range 19
78 - 81% 1
75 - 85% 1
80% 11
81% or higher 2
Additionally, two REOs from the Office of Overseas
Schools at the State
Department responded as follows:
In the U.S. Public Schools it's 85 to 88% of the operating budget.
Asking around the Old Pros in this office, we suggest that staff costs,
(salary, housing, travel, training) should be about 80-85% of total
operating costs.
Best of luck recruiting and hope to see many of you soon!
Areta
