Hi guys I have a few questions for those who are teachers.

if I opt to be an examiner this year will that effect my Mat pay ? I wanted to mark some AQA papers for extra income.

I am due in late December did anyone take time off before term ended eg we break up 16th December or did you start on babies due date. What would you recommend? This is my first pregnancy

@ridl14 are you in England? My understanding is you can't start your maternity leave after the baby arrives even if that falls in a holiday. You could start it literally the day the baby got here though.

Hi yes I'm in England, and yep I'd only be able to start my mat leave after my half term if baby is a bit overdue, I'm due the 20th and the Monday after my half term is the 24th. It is my first so I think going a bit overdue is a possibility but know I can't predict it.

My plan is still aim to start mat leave after the half term if possible but if baby comes on or before the 20th I know mat leave would start from the actual date of birth
