    Depends on the level of the paper and the paper.
    As a rough estimate, someone correcting JC papers (single paper exams) on the top rate of tax would get about 2.50 a paper, someone on the lower rate of tax (part time and unemployed teachers) might get about 3.90 a paper.

    They are very rough guesses.

    Interesting. And I know its another how long is a length of string, but about how many papers could be realistically corrected in an hour? (Specifically Science if the subject is a factor?) And how many scripts might you receive if you got the role for summer?

    Again it depends - terrible handwriting or confused answering could skew things. Anything between thirty minutes and an hour depending on whether the marking scheme is in your head or not.

    Things go quicker as you need to look less and less at the marking scheme.

    If the marking scheme is changed, you may have to recorrect everything you have already done but with no extra pay.

    First time corrector, guessing about 250-300 papers, but someone else may know for sure.
