    I am currently studying to be a primary school teacher and have 2 years done but now I was forced to take a year out and go back in September 2015(into 3rd year),because I failed an exam twice..I was wondering am I allowedto do subbing(eg.teacher absent) because a teacher mentioned it to me..or do Ihave to be fully qualified?

    No, you're not qualified or vetted, why would you be allowed teach?? Whoever mentioned it to you is obviously thinking of the boom time silliness.

    You could sub as an SNA. There is an unqualified daily rate for sub teachers, but with plenty of qualified people out there I wouldn't hold my breath TBH.

    You used to be able to but even if you could now there are so many unemployed teachers looking for work.
    SNA wages are 12.50 an hour for those paid hourly.
