term time work questions

Hi,

I've some stupid questions regarding term time only job.

I saw a job advert for term time only work. 30 hours per week term time only plus 20 days. What does the 20 days mean? Additional term holiday? or bank holiday plus annual leave allowance? or I need to work extra 20 days?


Many thanks in advance.

    I would have interpreted it as working during term time plus 20 extra days. My friend who works in a secondary school office is on a similiar contract (only 15 though) she works terms time + 5 INSET days plus 2 weeks in summer holidays to cover when exam results come in.
  • It will be 195 day (term time including INSET) plus 20 days within 'holidays'. These may be set dates, may be negotiable.

    You will receive pro rata pay to this effect.
