How To Calculate Salary From A Fte To Term Time Only. Please Help

[ruggief]

Hi everyone,
I'm being very dense but I can't seem to work this out. I won't know for sure until I get my contract which won't happen until DBS and references and I need to know whether I can afford to take it.
FTE is £21000 I'll be working term time plus so 35 weeks plus extra 5 days. 40 hours per week. I know that I will get 12 equal payments.
So do I say £21K is for 52 weeks so divide by 52 * 36 / 12 which is 14,538 divide by 12 is £12,211 but that does not include holiday pay. I know it's term time only but friends have said I should also receive at least 4 weeks holiday pay (to be taken out of term time) is this generally a fact in term time only jobs? In which case should I say £21K 52 weeks divide by 40 /12 is £16,153 / 12 is £1,346.
Sorry for waffle extra could make the difference (even with deductions). I have not had a term time only job and trying to work out if I can make it work even if I try to temp short term in the holidays.

I read that term time is thirty-nine weeks in the UK so that would be your thirty-five plus the four weeks' holiday. You will also be working another five 'Baker Day's making forty weeks in total.

As you are working part-year, your earnings for the year will be 40/52 x FTE and you'll get 1/12 of that each month (£1,346)

'Baker Days' not 'Baker Day's (useless autocorrect!!!!!!!!)

Is the job 1FTE ie. full time, or is it part time eg. 0.5FTE?

If its part time then the salary will actually be pro rata.

Holidays would also be pro rata.

Did to post something very recently along the same lines. That thread explained it all. May just be a similar case as that poster was martie

Hi, do you have a link to the post? I can't seem to locate a similar thread. I did search before posting.
I know that the job is term time only which as it's a special school is 35 weeks not 39.
My question really is although it's term time only so I'm not working holidays am I entitled to holiday pay (which I would obviously have to take in school holidays or not?) It would be full time 37.5 hours per week during term time.

This is the thread I was referring to.

Practices vary between local authorities but I think your annual pay will be something like 39*/52 of £21000 and it will be spread over 52 weeks .
*I used 39 because it's the 36 you mention plus an allowance for holidays which you will have to take out of term time

^ I note tha is pretty much in line with what The Corbeyloon says. Yes, your 35 week figure seems too low as the school year is 39 weeks.
