Please ensure that holidays are not booked in term-time if you are in any doubt please check with the school office.

Term & Holiday Dates

As a parent/carer you are responsible for ensuring your children receive a suitable full time education.

You should not book a family holiday during term time.

Whilst you may think this is beneficial, taking a holiday during term time means that children miss important school time and it will be difficult for them to catch up on work.

If you take your child out of school, the school may record this as unauthorised absence. This could result in a fixed penalty fine being issued by the local authority and as a result you may be fined in respect of each parent and each child, payable up to £120 for each. Therefore two parents and two children could potentially receive fines amounting to a maximum £480. If you choose not to pay the fine the local authority may take legal proceedings against you.
