Heads of Departments (HoDs) who meet the expectations as regards their roles and responsibilities shall receive 1 month’s academic leave for each completed year served as HoD. The rationale for this is that due to the extensive nature of HoD responsibilities, often the HoD’s own academic career may have been negatively impacted. The extra academic leave is an opportunity to rejuvenate their academic career.  This leave would be in addition to sabbatical leave earned in the normal course of events. 

More detail is provided in the Protocol regarding allocation of academic leave following end of term of office of HoD
