The SNCT Handbook of Conditions of Service
PART 2: SECTION 5 - ANNUAL LEAVE
Teachers and Music Instructors
Leave Year
5.1 The leave year shall run from 1 September in any year until 31 August of the following year. Leave shall not normally be carried over from one leave year to another. Annual leave will be taken at the times determined by the council, after consultation with the teacher trade unions recognised by the council.
Annual Leave Entitlement
5.2 The annual leave entitlement of a teacher or music instructor shall be the balance of days beyond the working year (as set out in Section 3 (Working Week and Working Year) paragraph 3.2) and excluding Saturdays and Sundays. Public holidays are included in this entitlement. A teacher or music instructor working for an entire school session will accrue a full leave entitlement.
Termination of Employment
5.3 Where a teacher or music instructor leaves the employment of a council, the leave entitlement is the number of days leave accrued within the school session less the number of days leave already taken. Where any balance of leave cannot be taken, the teacher or music instructor will be paid in lieu of leave accrued.
5.4 Where a teacher or music instructor who, at the date of leaving employment, has taken more leave than the accrued entitlement the council may recover a day’s pay for each day taken in excess of the accrued entitlement.
5.5 All teachers and music instructors will accrue paid leave on the basis of 0.3385 of a day for each day worked in the school session and pro rata for each part day. ‘Days worked’ include days of sickness absence and any form of paid leave, except for annual leave.
5.6 A teacher or music instructor moving to a new council shall abide by the pattern of holidays established for that leave year by the new council.
Compensatory Leave: Prolonged Sickness During School Holidays
5.7 See Section 6 (Sickness Allowances and Notification Arrangements), paragraphs 6.35 – 6.36.
Educational Psychologists, Senior Educational Psychologists, Depute Principal Educational Psychologists and Principal Educational Psychologists and Education Support Officers, Quality Improvement Officers and Quality Improvement Managers
Leave Year
5.8 The leave year will be the same as the leave year for local government employees (former APT&C staff).
5.9 Public holidays in the council area shall be granted as holidays with pay, in addition to the leave provided in paragraphs 5.10, 5.11 and 5.12 below, and 2 additional holiday days. The timing of these 2 additional days should be determined by the council, following consultation with the recognised trade unions.
Annual Leave Entitlement
5.10 The minimum annual leave entitlement is 20 days within a leave year.
5.11 For those with 5 years or more continuous service at the beginning of a leave year, the minimum annual leave entitlement is 25 days.
5.12 Leave entitlement beyond the minima may be granted at the discretion of the council.
5.13 The leave entitlement for part-year service will be calculated with reference to the table below:
Calculation of Annual Leave for Part-Year Periods of Service
| Completed months service* | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10 | 11 | 12 |
| Leave entitlement in days (annual = 20) | 2 | 3 | 5 | 7 | 8 | 10 | 12 | 13 | 15 | 17 | 18 | 20 |
| Leave entitlement in days (annual = 25) | 2 | 4 | 6 | 8 | 10 | 13 | 15 | 17 | 19 | 21 | 23 | 25 |
- A ‘complete month’ means the period between a date in one month and the immediately preceding date in the following month (for example, 15 February to 14 March inclusive).
5.14 Any previous employment with councils, employers listed in the Redundancy Payment (Local Government) (Modification) Order 1990 (as amended) and any other employment deemed by the council to be relevant, should be counted as continuous service as long as there has not been a break of a year or more.
Leave on Termination of Employment
5.15 On leaving employment with the council, the leave entitlement accrued within the current leave year should be calculated. Where fewer days have been taken than the number of days leave accrued, a day’s pay for each unused day of leave should be paid.
5.16 Where more leave has been taken than the accrued entitlement, the council may recover a day’s pay for each day taken in excess of the accrued entitlement.
Compensatory Leave: Prolonged Sickness During Leave
5.17 See Section 6 (Sickness Allowances and Notification Arrangements), paragraphs 6.37 – 6.38.
Teachers and Associated Professionals
Death in Service
5.18 Where a death occurs in service, the personal representatives of the deceased shall be paid an allowance in lieu of any holidays that had accrued at the date of death.
