Nope. Meet the LEL(£486 p/m), claim child benefit, buy extra years, pay Class 2 till abolished . No need to earn up to primary or secondary NIC thresholds.

answer is the same.

You've been directed towards the answer. Was it not enough? If that director claims child benefit for under 12s doesn't that earn a year's credit? If the director isn't a child benefit claimant or is but has older children, the director only need salary to LEL, but I suspect it needs a payroll to alert authorities of entitlement.  You'd be unwise to rely on a forum and not check yourself given the direction received.
