Our Expert Opinion on Teachers Building Society Easy Access Cash ISA for Teachers

Jan WatermannCo-Founder, DepositScout

This account is aimed squarely at teachers, so if you work in education and want an easy-access Cash ISA with a low opening balance of £100, it is worth a look on eligibility grounds alone. That said, the 2.05% rate sits below the market average for Cash ISAs and is 3.20% behind the category leader at 5.25%, and at 1.05% below August 2026 CPI of 3.1% your money is losing real value. If you fall below the minimum operating balance, the rate drops sharply to 1.25% for that calendar year, which is a meaningful catch to watch.
