Thank you Lorina. Have you heard of anyone in my situation getting paid two different rates? One for admin and one for being a qualified educator?

No, I haven't heard of this before... but then again it depends on the individual service and the situation.

Is your combined rate the same it would be as an OOSH Co-ordinator?

What do you get paid as a qualified educator?

Have you sked why you are receiving 2 different rates rather than as an OOSH Co-ordinator?
