Taking Holidays During Term Time

Taking Holidays During Term Time

Parents do not have the legal right to take children out of school for holidays. If exceptional circumstances arise where parents decide that time away from school cannot be avoided, then permission must be sought in writing before any bookings take place. Please note that any exceptional circumstances will be investigated individually.

Leave of absence forms can be obtained from the school office.

Unauthorised leave of absence will incur a fine from the Local Authority Education Welfare Service.
