How to calculate the summer vacation and maternity leave of female teachers in the same period

The Lao Dong Newspaper Legal Consulting Office replied:

Clause 2, Article 6 of Circular 05/2025/TT-BGDDT of the Ministry of Education and Training stipulates that in cases where summer vacation and maternity leave of female teachers have similar periods, in addition to the leave period prescribed in Point b, Clause 1 of this Article, the leave period of teachers includes:

a) Maternity leave as prescribed;

b) Summer vacation outside of maternity leave (before or after maternity leave);

c) In case the summer vacation period prescribed in Point b of this Clause is less than the number of annual days off as prescribed by the Labor Code, teachers will have an additional number of days off. The total number of additional days off and the number of days off specified in Point b of this Clause are equal to the number of days off annually as prescribed in the Labor Code. Additional leave is flexibly arranged according to the agreement between the teacher and the principal.

Point b, Clause 1, Article 6 of Circular 05/2025/TT-BGDDT stipulates: Holidays, Tet and other holidays as prescribed by the Labor Code and the Law on Social Insurance.

Thus, the method of calculating summer vacation and maternity leave for female teachers has the same period as above.
