All students are liable to pay tax and National Insurance contributions if they work in the UK, unless they earn less than a certain amount per year (for tax) or per week (for National Insurance).
More information about paying tax and National Insurance can be found on The University of Manchester's Careers Service website:

When you work in the UK you will need a National Insurance number to give to your employer.
If you are from outside the UK you will need to obtain one once you have received a job offer, or have just started your job.
You cannot get a number before you have a job.
To obtain a number go to your nearest Social Security office to where you live with your passport, offer letter of employment and permit (if required).
