Paid Summer Holidays?
Paid Summer Holidays?
Do International schools provide paid summer vacation for the teachers?
What is more important than the length of the contract is how much you are paid. A longer contract doesn't necessarily ensure more money! It might just mean less money per month but stretched over an additional 2 months. It has been my experience that schools will pay you over 10 months and you need to save for the summer. Some are different but that has been my experience.
You need to make sure that you have a contract over the summer because that will affect your health insurance. You don't want to have to be paying that. If you don't sign an initial two year contract, make sure you sign your second year's contract before you leave on summer holiday. That will ensure, I hope, that you will have insurance.
