**How does term time pay work?**

All Schools in Scotland must schedule 190 school days per school year in line with legislation. 190 Schools days is 38 weeks you will be working out of the 52 weeks of the year.

In order to pay you when the schools are off, we take the annual amount you would be due in the year and divide by 52 weeks.
- **For example**:_

38 Working Weeks + 3 Weeks Holiday Entitlement = 41 Weeks due pay for year.

£13.25 per hour x 20 Hours x 41 Weeks = £10,865

£10,865 divided by 52 weeks = £208.94
