Sabbatical meeting, competency framework

Earlier on the year I ask for a sabbatical, and am told that my request of going in January would not work but the end of the academic year would be better.

I put any such plans on hold.

So I turn up to this meeting with what I believe the relevant paperwork.

I fly through the details.

I am asked whether I am going to take a sabbatical. I say that I have not found the thing that interests me yet... but i would like to take a sabbatical if something comes up.

During that meeting I am asked

A few days later I submit my request formally to my line manager. She seems shocked although we have talked about it a few times.

I have already had the support of my director and programme area manager... but she seems to disregard our previosus conversations.

I need a break from this craziness in our department
