The employees will get the full months tax allowance as I said but the taxable pay for the year will be made up of these 11 payments.

How does that account for when an employee has occasionally 53, 54 or 56 weeks in the tax year? ...

Just to be clear I am not saying that this always happens; only that it will happen in this case. The payday has been moved forward in this case so that tax month 7 which runs from 6/10 to 5/11 will be missed out. That means the end of tax year taxable gross will have only 11 paydays in it.0 -

it doesn;t matter if you have 52/53 pay days ( weekly) , 26 pay days (fortnightly) , 13 pay days (lunar) , 12 pay days (calendar) or 11 pay days ... the taxable icome is the same the personal allowance is the same
there are issues where NI might vary by a small amount ( edge case with very low paid, edge case where the 'long month' means that someone tips over the UEL for that pay period ...

P60 does not mention the number of pay days ...
It certainly does matter when you get 53 tax weeks ( or 54 in the case of fortnightly or 56 in the case of four weekly pay). The PAYE system mostly does not take enough tax and those employees get a tax code adjustment for a following tax year to collect the extra tax.
P60 records the total taxable pay whatever the number of weeks or months.
Regarding the personal allowance I never said that was not the same, I pointed out that the tax deducted from month 8 would be lower due to that month having two monthly tax allowances.1
