We have family visiting from abroad during term time. They will be several hours away from us still, and it has been mentioned that we ask permission to take our dc out of school to make a longer visit.
Having read up about this, it seems to me that exceptional means just that eg funeral, close family wedding, and with the need to provide supporting evidence, it doesn't really cover a 'wouldn't it be nice if...' Situation which I suppose I really feel this is.(I am reluctant due to dc missing a lot of school last year because of unavoidable health stuff, and the impact that had)
Am I right, or is there more latitude than that?
