You pay Income Tax on:

* your wages if you're employed

This tax year (2006-2007), the basic personal allowance - or tax-free amount - is £5,035.
Income Tax is only due on taxable income that’s above your tax-free allowances.

Data taken from www.direct.gov.uk

You will earn £3,065 more than the non taxable income for 2006-2007 tax year, so you will have to pay £416.30 by my reckoning.
