Please remember that we do not authorise any holiday to be taken during term time. Attendance at school every day makes a difference to your child's learning and attainment, therefore please do not plan to take them out of school during term time.

This is first thing I read when I'm checking out my sons term dates for school this year, he's in nursery school.
I intend to take my son to a wedding in Ireland in spring, he would miss 3/4 days school, and then a couple of weeks after, i intend to most likely take him to Spain, meaning he would miss 5 days of school. I cannot get over the audacity of a school to tell a parent that do not " authorise " a parent to make such decisions regarding their own child. Not that legal really means anything, but what makes them think they have the right to try and dictate to parents like this?

{Ed032's Note - Hi, Walkon79. They are the LE and think they have the right to do whatever they want to whoever they want and they get away with it because too many Good Souls believe them and their satanic systems or, are too scared by the threats to do anything about it.

I am not sure it is the case with nursery school but don't parents get fined for school (indoctrination) days missed by their children? I am not lucky enough to have children of my own so I am unsure.

I would imagine there are ways to avoid paying these fines, much like there is for parking tickets and speeding fines. I know a little on the subject but not enough to confidently advise you.

What we need are some wise words from a sagely mushroom.

Does anyone know of one? ?

keeping it very simple, i email the school and tell them my children will be taken out of school as we are going on an educational trip and leave it at that. ive never had any fines or threats doing it this way. Hope this helps.

{Ed032's Note - Thanks, wiggy677. I wish more souls would realise that their opinion, humbly put across, helps many others.

P.s. I realise sometimes I am not that way. My bad.

{Ed033's Note - Excellent response to the school, start out cordial and if they do respond negatively, people can write to them asking them appropriate questions.

wiggy that is the perfect measured response, thank you very much. It is something I shall be putting into practice. Thank you profoundly too eds. I just think it's an outright disgrace that " establishments " feel they have the right to dictate to parents.

{Ed032's Note - You are not wrong, Walkon79. In some countries they can change your child's gender and persuade them to try assisted suicide without consulting you at all. ??
