Holidays in term time
In order to maximise individual achievement, parents should not take families holidays during the term time period. The school is unable to authorise holiday in term time unless it is an exceptional circumstance. Please note, a family holiday is not an exceptional circumstance. The Department of Education define exceptional circumstances as being a natural disaster or death in the family. The school will request evidence if a request is made. Please be advised that an unauthorised leave of absence can result in legal action.
