STAND DOWN ARRANGEMENTS. In clause U7 of the teaching staff enterprise agreement, designated stand down periods in schools are as follows:
U7.1 Stand down applies to school based teachers and principals only. Office based teachers must use a form of leave, flextime or time in lieu to access time off during the stand down period detailed in subclauses V10.2 and V10.
U7.2 The days following the designated annual leave period set out in subclause U8.4 and prior to commencement of the school year constitute a stand down period.
U7.3 The working days between the published school term dates during the school year also constitute a stand down period.
U7.4 Where circumstances justify it, the head of service may recall a teacher or principal to duty during a period of designated stand down.
U7.5 Where a teacher or principal is required on duty during a period of stand down, there is no entitlement to day(s) of stand down in lieu of such duty. A teacher based at Xxxxxxxx who works during part or all of a stand down period is entitled to an equivalent number of days of stand down at an alternate time. All days of stand down in a calendar year must be taken by the last day of term 4. This will be monitored using the Birrigai TIL system.

For a calendar year individual stand down arrangements for teachers based at Birrigai are to be negotiated with the Principal, following which the principal is to advise the school network leader as soon as possible.
