What do I do if I need to take holidays in term time?
Holidays in term time should be avoided, and will always be marked as unauthorized by the school in order to prevent the loss of valuable curriculum time for teaching and learning. Although there may be times when absence during term time is regarded as necessary for family reasons, it remains school policy not to authorise any absence for holidays during term time. If parents wish to remove their children from school, for any reason during term time, the request must be put in writing to the Headteacher in advance. Please refer to our Attendance Policy.
