The Teachers Service Commission (TSC) pays the annual leave allowance to teachers once a year. The allowance is paid together with the Teachers’ January Salaries.
A teacher is entitled to 42 days of annual leave, which must be taken during school vacations. Even during school breaks, it is presumed that a teacher who is not on annual leave is on duty.
The Annual Leave Allowance for teachers varies based on their grade and TSC scale. Here are the Annual Leave Allowance amounts for teachers:
- Grade B5 (TSC Scale 5): 4,000
- Grade C1 (TSC Scale 6): 4,000
- Grade C2 (TSC Scale 7): 6,000
- Grade C3 (TSC Scale 8): 6,000
- Grade C4 (TSC Scale 9): 6,000
- Grade C5 (TSC Scale 10): 6,000
- Grade D1 (TSC Scale 11): 10,000
- Grade D2 (TSC Scale 12): 10,000
- Grade D3 (TSC Scale 13): 10,000
- Grade D4 (TSC Scale 14): 10,000
- Grade D5 (TSC Scale 15): 10,000
Please note that the Annual Leave Allowance amount varies depending on the grade and TSC scale of the teacher.

NOTES:
- All the Heads of sections should have Leave Roasters in place to facilitate the easy flow of officers proceeding on leave. The roaster should show the period and the days applied for.
- Officers are to fill out the leave form in DUPLICATE and submit it to the Secret Registry a month prior to the commencement of leave.
- The leave allowance is payable only once every 12 months. Any leave carried forward in excess of half the entitlement days will be automatically forfeited, i.e., more than 15 days for 30.
- Staff members who take Maternity Leave will still benefit from their Annual Leave days for that year.
- Employees who fail to return to the office after attending the hospital or fail to report to work due to sickness must produce a medical certificate (sick off), or else the day will be deemed an absence and the same will be recovered from the salary. This has to be within 24 hours so as to qualify for sick leave.
- Officers on STUDY LEAVE will not be entitled to Annual leave.
