Holidays during term time
There is no right time to have a holiday during term time, as your child is missing out on learning time. However, only in exceptional circumstances will leave be granted.
The school governing body sets out the requirements for permission to be granted for term time leave. Please contact your child's school if you wish to know more about this.
The law says that parents do not have a right to take their child out of school for holiday leave during term time.
