My Sister is getting married in Greece in June. It's all been very sudden and she has said she'd love all the family to be there but understands the expense/time off work and school etc.
I want to go.
I explained this to school today. We moved house and to a new school 4 weeks ago.
I was told "Unless a pupil of this school is competing for their country in the Olympic Games, it will not be authorised"
I was a bit annoyed at the statement and the tone it was delivered in but it wasn't totally unexpected.
Do fines start at 5+ days absence?
We are intending this to be our sole holiday this year twinning it with the wedding.
Does it mean we might as well have 10 days off school and be fined (as we'd get a fine for 8 days off school)?
If we were to go away in 2025 then again in 2026 - would this mean we could be court summoned if we took a term time holiday again in 2027?
Is it better to miss 1 year out of 3 consecutive years?
Trying to get my head around all this.
