We have had a letter stating that term time holidays will not be allowed. I and my children have not had a holiday for 12/13yrs and i have never taken them out of school for a holiday. But was planning one for next year with 4 kids of my own and a stepson who will be joining us we simply cannot afford to go during school holidays. Now what annoys me is the very next day after this letter, we had 1 telling us that our children now have a mth of for xmas this year because of moving to new school and the school are taking 40 children on a non educational trip to france for 4 days. Now as the reasons for no holidays is claimed that too much learning time is lost, how can they be allowed to take theses children out of school, when we cannot take our children for 1 weeks holiday..and why cant they set up an annex for the xmas period so the children dont miss school. One rule for them and another for us..not fair.
