In line with Government guidance, leave of absence during term time is only granted in the most exceptional circumstances. In making a request for an authorised absence from school you will need to explain why the circumstances are exceptional. It is the decision of the Head Teacher whether an absence will be authorised.
Whilst all requests are made on a case-by-case basis, we take a firm stance in not authorising holidays during term time due to the impact this has on pupils’ education. If you take your child out of school without permission the absence will be unauthorised and we will consider legal action.
Requests for leave of absence should be submitted at least 10 working days prior to the requested leave of absence.
