Hi, my son got a place at nursery at a good school, starting in October. That doesn't mean he'll get a place at reception next year but we live really close to the school. I have booked a 3 week holiday to go to South America to see my family after Xmas, so he'll miss about 2 weeks at school. I read an article about taking your children out of school to go on hols in today's The Times and am really confused...Should I tell the school in advance about my holidays? can they say no? will I have to pay a fine? can this holiday lessen our chances to get a place in the school next year? we booked this holiday about 4 months ago, thinking that it was just nursery, so it would ok....help!
