You could also call this:

“Rules for taking money from your pay for student loans”

The PAYE rules apply to money that is taken out of your salary or wages for your student loan. These rules must be followed by you, your employer, and anyone who helps with payroll. There are some exceptions to this, which you can find in Schedule 2 of the law. You need to follow these PAYE rules as much as they apply to your situation.
