The salary for a BPEd varies according to several factors, including job type, location, and experiences. As an individual enters the education sector, a starting salary can vary between ₹3-5 lakh per year, or LPA. In case of government schools or colleges, the pay might be relatively low initially but increases over time and with promotions. Salary is more liberal, and usually an organization's reputation plays a crucial role, at private institutions or sports academies.
Except for teaching jobs, BPEd graduates may work as a sports coach, a fitness trainer, or even sports manager with ₹4-7 LPA salary or even above, according to experience. Anyone working with the corporate wellness programs or organizing any sports events or activities might command a much better salary based on the size of the organization. In addition, private coaching or work with sport teams may give an opportunity for earning based on performance and the client base. In this profession, career growth can also offer specializations or further education leading to higher incomes.
