Holiday Pay Explained!

From the 1^st of September 2024, we are offering you two different holiday pay schemes: Rolled up or Accrued Holiday Pay.

Our Holiday Pay Schemes Explained

Rolled Up Holiday Pay

Rolled-up holiday pay allows you to receive your holiday pay for each pay period as opposed to accruing your holiday pay and requesting this to be paid during annual leave.

You will receive the 12.07% of your daily rate that is your holiday entitlement, for each day you work in a week (your pay period), paid to you with your weekly pay – 1 week in arrears.

Accrued Holiday Pay

You will accrue 12.07% of the days you have worked. When holiday pay is requested, your holiday pay will be calculated based on 12.07% of your average earnings over the last 52 weeks up to a maximum of 104 weeks, excluding any weeks without pay.

What happens if I haven’t worked 52 weeks for Flourish Education?

We will calculate your holiday pay over the average weeks where you have worked for us.

To view various scenarios of how to calculate your holiday pay, read the Department for Business & Trade’s Holiday Pay and Entitlement reforms from 1^st January 2024 guidance on the UK Government website.
