Teachers-when to take leave???

[mrsmac]

I would ring leave section, they are usually pretty good, I know they were great when I was having DS and had to leave on sick leave at 28 weeks.

I am in the public NSW system, and this is what happens if you are a temp:

you get mat leave IF YOU HAVE BEEN EMPLOYED CONTINUOUSLY FOR 40 WEEKS

But I don't believe you get anything if you have not been continuously employed. (I think you may be eligible even if you are day to day casual).
