Inset

[BlessedandLoved]

Hi, I have a term time only agreement with my childminder. The inset day comes a day after school closes, i don't work on inset days as an agency worker hence I'll not need to take my child to the childminder. But my childminder insists that I'll still need to pay her for that day irrespective. Is this right as i only get paid for the days i work. I need your advice please.

I know it's not on they don't open afternoons last days of terms or half terms. They also had a week of consultations with workmen but were open to others plus the days they do staggered starts and home visits. As a provider I have to account for every hour but schools are exempt it seems
It would be interesting how they justify claiming for those hours when that's a lot of children not getting the education they've got funding for, assuming they're claiming for the funds.

I know a lot of secondary schools do an early finish (1-2pm) at Christmas and Summer, but a primary school doing what you say is unreasonable in my opinion.

I agree totally unreasonable it seems nobody at the LA will say a word. Parents evenings held today shut for the afternoon to 15 hours children again and no parents evening if your child attends only 15 hours
