The IEU claim that meal breaks are not guaranteed – is this true?
The wording in the proposed agreement confirms that teachers will be entitled to at least one interrupted meal break during the school day, but does not specify this as a minimum 30 minute break. Rather, this provision confirms that the timing and length of the meal break should be determined at the school level. This will give schools the flexibility to organise breaks for teachers in different ways that better support local needs, such as specifics of a school timetable, supervision requirements, staff preferences and other school factors. By way of example, teachers in a school that runs on a 50 minute lunch break, rather than a 1 hour lunch break may prefer to arrange 25 minute lunch breaks for staff, to avoid complexity when arranging student supervision rosters for staff.
