A new head is taking over my dc's school and I was surprised to see the first communication included a demand for money for a workshop (unspecified) taking place in school hours. There is no option to opt out or explanation of why parents need to pay for it and it can't be run by the usual teachers.
I thought schools weren't allowed to ask for money for compulsory activities taking place in school hours on school premises? Or have the rules changed?
