Hello
DS1 has just started Reception and is loving it. We have already unthinkingly booked some holiday in what turns out to be term time. I need to fill out a 'request for absence' form but I have also been told that this will be refused. The holiday is paid for so we will be going, so do I just go without saying anything or do I tell the class teacher? It seems really bad manners to go after permission has been refused but ds is only 4yo and I'm sure will develop more during the holiday with both his parents there 24/7 than he would at reception for a week.
What does everyone else do in this situation?
Thanks
