School Holidays During Term Time

The Government has amended regulations for taking holidays in term time and these new regulations come into effect from August 2024.

Parents must request permission in advance from school for leave of absence for any reason, including holidays.

Headteachers cannot grant leave during term time unless there are exceptional circumstances and cannot grant permission retrospectively.

Generally, a need or desire for a holiday or other absence for the purpose of leisure and recreation would not be an exceptional circumstance.

Parents can be fined for taking their child on holiday during term time without consent from the school. Please find more details on the Durham County Council website.

Please contact the school if you wish to discuss this with the Headteacher.
