How it is worked out

Your tax-free Personal Allowance is £12,570.00. That leaves £67,430.00 to tax.
£37,700.00 is taxed at 20% = £7,540.00.
£29,730.00 is taxed at 40% = £11,892.00.
National Insurance is 8% of £37,700.00 (your pay between £12,570 and £50,270) = £3,016.00, plus 2% of the £29,730.00 above £50,270 = £594.60.
Take-home: £80,000.00 minus £19,432.00 tax minus £3,610.60 National Insurance = £56,957.40.

Part of your salary is above £50,270, so it is taxed at the 40% higher rate. A pension paid by salary sacrifice or before tax can bring some of it back to 20%.
