Kent Scheme Annual Leave Entitlement
It has been agreed through this year's pay bargaining with our recognised trade unions that KCC will standardise annual leave to 30 days for all staff by 2027/28. This will be done on an incremental basis.
Therefore, the Kent Scheme annual leave arrangements for 2025/26 are outlined in the table below. The Concessionary Day remains.
| Kent Scheme Grade | Standard Allowance (days) | After five years’ service and over (days) |
|---|---|---|
| KS Entry Apprentice - KSA to KSE | 28 | 30 |
| KSF to KSJ | 30 | 30 |
| KSK+ | 30 | 30 |
