But then your post of 21:28 shows exactly what you are
Much better at research than you might think...
There have actually been several court cases discussing this matter, including a judgment from the Supreme Court last year - concerning teachers at a Sixth-Form College wanting the same 1/365th strike pay deductions as school teachers:

"The Supreme Court disagreed and upheld the teachers’ appeal, deciding that annual salary accrues at an equal daily rate over the calendar year unless expressly provided otherwise. As there was nothing in the teachers’ contracts which stipulated apportionment other than on a calendar day basis, the Court of Appeal’s approach was wrong and the teachers’ claim succeeded. This means that there is now a clear authority that Sixth Form Colleges should deduct pay at a rate of 1/365th of a teacher’s salary for each day on strike, as is the case for school teachers governed by the Burgundy book"
Quote from the NUT in relation to strike pay deductions:
"School teachers can be directed by their employers to work for up to 195 days and 1265 hours per year but are also required to work as many additional hours as are necessary to discharge their responsibilities. This additional working time obligation is not limited to the above 195 days. They do not have any contractual holiday entitlements or overall limits on working hours. The provision for deduction at 1/365th per day is not an additional contractually agreed benefit but is based upon the working time requirements provided in the STPCD."

"Some assistance in this type of case can I think be found in the judgment of Scott J in Sim at 928G-929C, which is relied upon by the appellants as follows:
In considering the scope of a teacher’s professional obligations as a teacher, it is convenient to start with those matters that are common ground. It is accepted that the teachers have an obligation to teach their classes in accordance with the timetable from time to time in force. It is accepted that they have obligations properly to prepare for their classes and to mark the schoolwork done by their pupils either in class or as homework. It is accepted that these latter obligations may require work to be done outside normal school hours. To put the point another way, a teacher could not excuse a failure to be properly prepared for a class or a failure to mark schoolwork within a reasonable time after it had been done by pointing out, correct though the observation might be, that he or she had not had time within school hours to do the work. It is, perhaps, one of the hallmarks of professional employment, as opposed to employment in non-professional capacities, that professionals are employed to provide a particular service and have a contractual obligation to do so properly. A worker in a car factory or shop may clock off at 5.30 pm or, perhaps, work late on an overtime basis. An employed professional does not usually have an overtime option. He is employed to provide a particular service to proper professional standards. His contract may require his attendance in an office or other place of work for particular hours but his contractual obligations are not necessarily limited to work done within those hours. So, too, teachers’ duties are not necessarily confined to their obligation to be on school premises during school hours and to take their classes during those hours
Extracts from TES community discussion - which actually just come up if you google: Are Teachers Paid For The Holidays?:
"Depends on what contract you have. If paid by the hour, on supply or taking up a maternity leave cover it is unlikely you would be paid for holiday periods. If full time and permanent, then yes, for all 13 weeks worth of holidays you are paid as part of your annual salary."
"You get an annual salary, i.e. you are paid for the whole year. So, yes, we do get paid for the holidays. Some may say we earn it by working more during term time than other jobs. So over a year it all evens out. You also need the holidays because you work hard during the terms."
"You are only paid for the 1265 hours you work as directed time."
"Not true. These is merely the current limit on the hours which the headteacher may direct (tell you what to do) your work and is usually taken up by mostly teaching and then meetings."
"You are paid to carry out the duties specified in your contract and therefore expected to work as many hours outside the 1265 as necessary."
"...if there is no limit on the amount of hours you could be expected to teach beyond the 1265 hours..."
"There is a limit. Teachers must work such "reasonable additional hours" so as to discharge their professional duties. So the limit is down to reasonableness"
"... is correct. The DT hours do not constitute the entire contracted time of a teacher...Teaching is essentially a job where there are no contractual limits on work time. What are reasonable hours beyond the 1265 DT hours for a full-timer, is up to individual teachers to decide."
Academy Schools don't have to stick to the Burgundy Book but they generally do - otherwise there might be an uplift in pay to allow for extra hours/duties etc.
