Holiday Pay during furlough

was furloughed 3 months into a 6 month probationary period.  As I work in a school, the Easter break was during furlough. I then resigned at the beginning of July and they accepted my one week notice period.  However I have not received any ‘holiday pay’ in my final salary.  Is this correct as I would have thought that they surely owe me the Easter holiday full pay and not just the Government furlough payment I received?

    Is this a private school?  I was under the impression that state funded schools couldn't furlough staff.  Local authority staff working in schools don't get holiday pay (as such) - it's included in their annual salary/12.

    Sounds like you probably are owed leave. Were you paid at 80% for the whole furlough period?
