				| Normally you can expect 10 in addition to the national holidays, but to be safe, directly ask the prospective employer to clarify it. In the contract. |

				Also ask them if you can take them when you want in winter  and in summer or whether you take them when the school tells you.

				| Also make sure your contract stipulates that your 5 day holiday is 5 working days (M-F) . Some schools shaft you by including the 2 weekend (non working) days in your 5 day holiday. |
