Holiday
Every year, the Executive Board sets the dates of the school holidays. More information about the current holiday schedule:

Short-term leave of absence / Short-term special leave of absence
The CLA for Secondary Education and the CLA for Primary Education lay down various rules regarding short-term leaves of absence. Employees must always request a short-team leave of absence from their manager or his/her substitute. In addition to the rules laid down in the CLA, doctors’ and dental appointments are also registered as short-term leave and treated as such. If possible, appointments should be scheduled outside working hours and especially outside class times, or at the beginning or end of the day.
Saving leave
Employees can only save up leave if no colleagues are made redundant or displaced. If this is the case, the Executive Board will announce this prior to the request to save leave or prior to the relevant school year (in the case of current cases).
Saved up leave is indicated clearly in an employee’s annual working hours (schedule)
