HOLIDAYS DURING TERM TIME
HOLIDAYS DURING TERM TIME
The Department for Education states that children MUST attend school and there is no legal proviso for term time holidays. At Lift Newington our aim is to prepare pupils for their future lives and careers. With this in mind, we require parents to observe the school holidays as prescribed. In exceptional circumstances pupils may be granted a leave of absence. Parents need to complete a leave of absence form availble here or from the school office. All holiday requests MUST be received by the school office a minimum of 4 weeks before the holiday start date.
If your child has a school attendance record of over 97% and the holiday is for 10 school sessions (5 days) or less the school has the option of agreeing to the request on the condition that the application is made in line with the definition for exceptional cirucmstances. Leave of absence requests will not be authorised for any pupil with attendance below 97% regardless of the circumstances.
The leave of Absence Request Application can be found here
Examples of exceptional circumstances include;
-Service Personnel and other employees who are prevented from taking holidays outside term-time
-Acute crisis within the family, where the family needs to spend time together to support each other
-Court order/formal agreement where parents have separated
Please note that all holidays requested that are not classed as an exceptional circumstance will not be authorised and will be subject to a Penalty Notice of a minimum of £80 per child, per parent from Hull City Council.
