Hi! So I have literally just discovered I am pregnant with DC2, much to my surprise! In September I'll be starting a four day contract at my prep school (have been on 2.5 there since Jan this year after previous maternity leave). I predict that I'll be in the four day role for six months (all being well!) before I have to go off again. Does it sound like I should be entitled to maternity pay based on my four day salary, despite being in the role only six months? This is not planned, we are moving house today, and my contract is buried in a box somewhere so can't check it...just wondered if anyone could reassure me that it sounds likely I'd be eligible? I know my school may have particular rules, but just wanted to get a feel for how stressed I need to be right now!!!!
