Teachers and SNAs returning from career breaks return to the school in which they were working before they went on career break.

The position in relation to the other 20,000 employees in the education sector depends on the policies and arrangements in place in each of the employments in which they work. In this regard it should be noted that the Haddington Road Agreement did not provide for any change to the position of staff in the education sector as regards their right to return to their old positions when returning from career break.
