Holidays During Term Time
The Government has amended the regulations for taking holidays in term time and these new regulations come into effect from September 2024.
More details can be found here Holidays in term time - Durham County Council
Headteachers have the discretion to grant leave, but they should only do so in exceptional circumstances. This leave is unlikely, however, to be granted for the purposes of a family holiday.
Parents can be fined for taking their child on holiday during term time without consent from the school.
Please contact the school if you wish to discuss this with the Headteacher.
