Holiday entitlement with part time work

Options
I work just 10 hours per week - term time only for a school - 37 weeks per year

My salary is averaged out over the year - so I get paid £331 per month for 12 months a year.....
What I am trying to find out is whether I should be given "paid annual leave" in addition to my 15 weeks non-working weeks ?
If this is the case (I have not been paid any for 5 years) - I will be owed a lot of back pay.......

    I don't believe so. As far as I understand it your leave entitlement is included in the weeks off

    What is your hourly rate and what is your gross pay?


    If your hourly rate * 370 /12 is less than your monthly gross pay you are being paid for leave, (probably around 37 hours worth, give or take)

    Yes and no. You are not entitled to paid leave in addition to your non-working weeks, but some of that non-working time should be calculated as paid leave.

    But my contract says that I only work for 37 weeks per year - so surely I should accrue holiday pay during my working weeks ?

    Calculations vary between authorities but your pay will include your holiday entitlement. If you ask payroll they'll give you a breakdown of how they calculate it.

    Or you could use Google, plenty of worked examples on there.

    As said you will more than likely be getting paid for it

    I work term time and am paid for 42.66 weeks. My salary is worked out as hourly rate x number of hours per week x 42.66. I only actually work 38 weeks.
