Welcome from the Headship Team

 Absence Forms - Holiday Absence

Please fill in this form if due to exceptional circumstances you wish to take your child out of school during term time.  We request that parents do not take holidays in term time as it seriously disrupts pupil's education.

All holidays are unauthorised.  Legislation makes it clear that Head Teachers may not grant leave of absence during term time.  They no longer have the discretion to allow holidays up to 10 days or to agree extended leave for parents to visit their country of origin (this is stated by the Director of Education and Early Intervention).  If you believe you have exceptional circumstances please email the school office for advice.

NOTE - any holiday of 7.5 days or more may be issued with a fine of £60.00 (see FPN guidance for more information).  Penalty Notice £60.00 if paid within 21 days, increasing to £120.00 if paid after 21 days and before 28 days.

In nearly all cases of holidays medical evidence of future time off will be required for illness.  Please speak to the school office for help with this.
