Teachers - sick note half term

29 replies

Hello. I am suffering from stress at work.

my doctor has issued a sick note for 4 weeks which ends as half term starts. If I need a sick note for another 2 weeks, should this include half term? Or can it start the week we are back to school.

hope that makes sense.

wow! All these Karen’s winging about you saying half term. It is bloody half term, what do you want her to say “end of spring term holidays” get over yourselves. This lady is already stressed- what happened to be kind.
good luck with your sick note hun! Hope you get paid for summer x

But mis-use of "half-term" when one means an actual end of term break causes confusion, as evidenced by this thread.
And what's with the use of "Karen" here? Really?
And to answer the OP, yes, keep the sick/fit note running with no break.
