Translation

Translation from a teacher’s current table-based entitlement to the proposed allocation shall occur on 28 January 2024. Translation will be based on the years of service accrued under the teacher’s current table-based entitlement and the corresponding allocation for the accrued years of service, less sick leave taken, but no teacher shall be allocated a sick leave balance of less than 10 days.

Examples of translation:

A teacher with 2 years of accrued service will have an accumulated entitlement of 46 days – this teacher will translate with 60 days accumulated entitlement; their sick leave balance will be the accumulated entitlement less the number of sick leave days taken during their accrued service.

A teacher with 5 years of accrued service will have an accumulated entitlement of 92 days – this teacher will translate with 90 days accumulated entitlement; their sick leave balance will be the accumulated entitlement less the number of sick leave days taken during their accrued service. Where a teacher has taken all 92 days they will be allocated 10 days sick leave (as this is the minimum balance teachers are allocated on translation), and they will receive a further 10 days on completion of a further 6 months service.
