My contracted hours are 8-4, Mon to Fri.

 

I used to be willing to stay behind to finish things off, but it was never appreciated so I stopped doing it.

 

Also, I get the same recognition at the end of the day whether I bust my balls or take my time. So now I just do the latter.

I'm in at 6.15am and try to get away for 3.30pm. I find that, in the 1.5 hours before staff get if, I can do what would take all day otherwise.

 

Me too! I am just contracted to do a set number of hours in each school with no times given - but I choose to get in at 7.15 so that I can get stuff done before the staff get here. I swap it between schools so that I am in some early mornings and some lunchtimes in each case - so they can come and see me - and that seems to keep them happy.

Mind you, my lunchbreak is eating a banana in the car during the 15 mins it takes to drive from one job to the other. :)

We work 8am to 4pm Mon-Thu, 3:30pm finish on a Friday. 30 mins lunch break each day

 

My philosophy now is .... if my time is not worth paying for, I don't give it.......having said that, I try to be flexible & will occasionally start a little earlier or leave a bit later, but I try to stick rigidly to the number of hours I am contracted to do. If asked by SMT, I will stay late to support a parents evening by negotiating time off in lieu.

 

 

I don't use remote access either. I don't expect to be called at home and the school does not have my mobile number as they make no contribution towards its provision.

 

I like the cut of your jib! A man after my own contract...
