Experienced/in the know teacher please - Job change and directed time?

[ProbablyLate]

Bit of a newbie so hoping this is an appropriate place to post this!

I have just been offered a job in a school local to me from January. I've been commuting an hour recently so am delighted!!!

However, they have a fortnight off in October and only a week at Easter, whereas the school I'm in until Christmas has the other way round. This means over the year I'll be working a week extra than my directed time. Is this just one of those things you have to just suck up sometimes as a teacher or can I request to be paid more / have a bonus holiday just for me? Both of those seem a bit cheeky and unrealistic but also I don't particularly want to effectively do a weeks unpaid teaching!

You just suck it up, I'm afraid. It quite often happens to people moving school at Easter, when if neighbouring authorities have a week's difference some people gain a week's holiday and others lose a week.

You might find that their summer holiday is slightly earlier - in which case you might not have done a whole week more than them this term.

You just suck it up like everyone else who moves jobs to somewhere with a different holiday year. Sorry if that sounds a bit blunt but it would never even cross my mind to ask about something like that.

Never crossed my mind either. Comes across a bit pernickety.
