Sacked

[onanotherday]

Just that... been sacked due to long term sick and not passing a probationary period..even though have worked for school before and invited back. So 25 years of teaching down the pan. Need to vent

Eeek. I presume you've spoken with the union and checked that the school has acted legally?

It needn't be the end of your career though, surely? Get better. Find a new job (I know it's not quite that simple, but I'm pretty sure that 'couldn't complete probationary period due to ill health' would suffice on future applications)

Hope you're okay

Is that legal?

How long have you been off sick? What process have they followed?

What sort of probationary period? It sounds harsh to me.

I've just read from another post how they've done that. Surely there had to be warning though?

Thanks for your replies. Unfortunately as it's an Academy it is legal...warning to read detail of contracts!
Had it been LEA I would be protected.
Will be taking to appeal but doubt much can come of it.
