Hi,

We have a teacher who is on a part-time contract (0.5) and is currently in charge of Spanish.  She was being paid her TLR at 0.5 in line with her working hours however has recently queried this to say she she get the full TLR as she does the full i/c Spanish role and was never explicitly told she would be paid 0.5 for it.  I'm aware that the teachers standards say TLR are paid part-time but wondered how other school approach these situations?

My headteacher would be happy to pay her the full amount if she was on 0.8 but at 0.5 contract she is unsure, especially as it will set a precedent and the teacher would like the full amount back paid from when the role started (circa 3 years ago).

Any advice or guidance would be greatly received.

Many thanks

Louise
