Taking children on holiday during term time can lead to a series of problems such as:

  • your child's education suffering
  • missing lessons and extra curricular activities
  • continuity of work being lost

As a result we ask you to avoid going on holiday during term time if possible.

If you have to take your child out of school during term time, you will have to discuss and agree with your school.   

There are 5 teacher training days in every academic year.  Every individual School decides when these will be held; contact your school to receive the dates.
