3. Time spent in industry or commerce or in professional or research work after the age of 21 years where likely to be of value to the teacher in the performance of his/her duties may be approved by the Local Education Authority in its discretion, and if so approved, shall be counted as equivalent to teaching service provided that not more than ten years shall be so counted.
II.-General
1. Increments on the scale for Qualified Teachers shall not be given in respect of any period prior to the date on which the teacher first entered upon service of the types referred to in I above after having completed the course or obtained the qualifications by virtue of which he/she obtains the status of Qualified Teacher.
2. Service in a School in the period prior to the date of its recognition as efficient by the Ministry is accepted under Section 13 (i) of this Report provided that the School was not decided by the Ministry to be inefficient during the period in question.
3. Part-time Teaching Service. In calculating the salary of a Teacher a proportionate increment may be given for previous part-time teaching service (e.g., one increment for two years' half-time teaching service), subject to the condition that, where part-time teaching was concurrent with other service or experience which can be counted for increment, not more than one increment on the appropriate scale can, in the aggregate, be given in respect of a year of a Teacher's life.
4. (i) The following are examples of service not accepted as service for increment purposes:
(a) Service as Supplementary Teacher.
(b) Service as Temporary Teachers in War-time Nurseries, War-time Nursery Classes and Residential Nurseries rendered prior to the date of their approval by the Ministry in that capacity.
(c) Service under the age of 18 years.
(d) Foreign service (i.e., service outside the British Empire) except as provided for in paragraph I. 1 (b) and I. 1 (e) above.
(e) Service as Private Tutor.
(f) Teaching under supervision (e.g., Student Teacher, and Pupil Teacher).
(ii) Absences on leave without pay do not count as service.
5. Aggregation of periods of service for increment purposes. The following arrangements shall apply:
(i) The complete calendar months will be totalled; and
(ii) The odd days at the beginning and end of the period of service where the service included a complete calendar month and all the days of service where it did not will be aggregated.
In order to equate odd days to months of service the sum of all the aggregates in (ii) for the whole of the teacher's service which is taken into account for increment purposes will be divided by 30. The quotient will be taken as a number of complete months, and the remainder will count as one month, or will not count according as it is 15 days or over, or less than 15 days.
In the case of teachers paid at daily rates service continuing on both sides of the week-end will be regarded as including the week-end, but the school vacations will not be included unless the teacher has a continuous engagement. Neither the incidence of a financial year nor a change of employment is regarded as affecting the continuity of service which otherwise runs continuously.
