I am about to be handed a criminal conviction for taking my daughter out of school for five days during Activities Week, a period in which the school collapses the curriculum and offers no lessons. Her attendance other than this has been 100% for the entire academic year. We refused to pay the penalty notice on the grounds that no lessons were missed but now we face prosecution, a possible criminal conviction and fine. Does anyone know of a reasonably priced solicitor in the Bristol area that could represent us?
