Calculation of term time only plus two weeks pay



Term time only plus two additional weeks pay is calculated on the basis of the following:

Number of teaching weeks - 38 weeks; plus Public (bank) holidays - 1.6 weeks (8 days); plus Two additional weeks, inclusive of CPD - 2 weeks; plus Individual leave entitlement - 5.4 weeks (27 days) or 6.4 weeks (32 days)

Individual leave entitlement is calculated on the length of continuous service. Employees with less than 5 years service will receive 27 days annual leave. Employees with more than 5 years service will receive 32 days annual leave. For example:

Calculation for employees with less than 5 years service:

40 weeks (term time plus 2) + 27 days (annual leave) + 8 days (public holidays) = 47 weeks pay, to be paid in 12 equal monthly instalments

Calculation for employees with more than 5 years service:

40 weeks (term time plus 2) + 32 days (annual leave) + 8 days (public holidays) = 48 weeks pay, to be paid in 12 equal monthly instalments
