Questions and answers
How much do teachers make in Manitoba?
On the 2025 Sunshine List, 10,258 teachers were paid $85,000 or more, with a median of $106,442. Job Bank’s survey wages for everyone in the occupation are on this page.

The Winnipeg School Division, with 1,662 in 2025.
Which job titles are counted?
Those that match the profession’s rule: job titles that name a teacher (teacher, enseignant), except principals, consultants, coordinators, managers, directors and superintendents. Titles are as each employer wrote them.
Why are the list and Job Bank shown separately?
The list has public employees paid above its line; Job Bank’s survey covers everyone in the occupation, public and private, at every pay. Pooling them would describe neither.
What is “total compensation”?
The one pay figure Manitoba publishes for each person for the year, shown as published. Manitoba does not publish taxable benefits separately, so none are shown. How the lists work
