Hi

I have been offered a position that sounds great!

Public school job with 5 weeks holidays working 22 teaching hrs 9 - 2 Monday - Friday.

It is by far the best position I have been offered to press, however, in the contract the following clause puzzled me a little and I wondered if anyone could shine a light and offer any advice!!!


1 The contract states I get 5 weeks paid holiday but then states . Regarding the vacation, B can have a vacation during the summer and winter vacations but any vacations are not allowed during the camp(Summer or Winter) or teachers training programs.

Does this sound right?

Ask for clarification as to when you can take your vacation.

I believe that what that means is that you take your vacations when the school is closed (aka when the kiddos are on vacation). I think this is pretty much a standard for most schools... or at least those that I've been in contact with.
