REMINDER: Taking your child out of school in term time1 February 2024 (by Jade Taylor (JadeT)) |
We must remind you that the Government policy will not allow the Local Authority to authorise holidays during term-time unless for “exceptional circumstances”.
From January 2024 - If you take your child on holiday during term-time without the school's consent, a Penalty Notice will be issued to each parent/carer/person with day to day responsibility for each child, with a fine of £60 per child. If the fine is not paid within 21 days it is increased to £120 and will need to be paid within 28 days. If the fine is not paid then court action may be taken against you.
Thank you
