Leave – Staff

All staff at Living School are entitled to various forms of leave, depending on their employment status and the applicable MEA. 

  • Full-time and Part-time Staff: Entitled to annual leave, personal (sick) leave, and public holidays as per Australian employment standards.
  • Casual Staff: Casual employees are not entitled to paid annual or personal leave but may be entitled to casual loading.

If you are sick and unable to work, you must notify via call (or text if unavailable) before 7 am on the day of your absence. Teaching staff and TA’s are to contact their Learning Neighbourhood Director. Non-teaching and Admin Staff are to contact the Business Manager. Please ensure you follow the correct procedure to ensure your leave is properly recorded.

If you would like to apply for any leave other than SICK/CARER’S LEAVE, please contact the business manager then submit a leave request in Xero Me.
