spooky! but if it's a small school you have to do a bit of everything in the office. Do you know if they are interviewing many others, do you have office experience already?

I know there is a few of us but not sure how many exactly, will ask 2mor. God yes loads of experience.

Find out if the kids are armed, you know, knives etc, and if they are ,do they supply stab-proof vests,


Cant be too careful with the little sh1ts nowadays.

you'll be fine.

I see you asked Lore about holidays/salary:

1) yes you get long holidays

you only work, say, 39 weeks

(that will depend on your contract, we do 39 weeks at my school but they might ask you to work 40 or 42 - depends what the school wants)

2) you only get paid for the c.39 weeks

what they do is add your holiday pay (you obviously can't take leave in term-time but you still earn holiday pay (pro rata) as you would in a 52 week job) plus bank holiday pay which you are also entitled to, to your c39 weeks pay.

3) they add the c39 weeks pay + annual leave + bank holidays and then divide it by 12 so you still get paid every month.

Hope that's clear - ask if it isn't.
