There has been a lot of discussion (and hot air) about leave on the Google discussion group over the last few days. Below I have clarified what the position is:
Annual leave
The annual leave entitlement is 25 days for GP ST1/2 and 3. If you have trained in a different speciality first and are at Point 3 of the speciality payscale (this is NOT the same as ST3) then the leave entitlement increases to 30 days.
Study leave
The annual study leave entitlement is 30 days per year. This includes half day release, but you cannot increase your study leave by adding half day release sessions you have missed due to annual leave, sickness etc. To apply for study leave you need to first discuss your plans with your GP trainer (when in general practice) or your clinical supervisor (when in hospital posts).
I think that is all perfectly clear now?
