Allow parents take children out of school for family holidays during term time

Allow parents take children out of school for family holidays during term time — 7 signatures. Status: rejected.

Petition background

Parents currently face fines for taking children on holiday during term time. Many families cannot afford peak holiday prices. We ask the Government to allow parents to take children out of school for family holidays during term time.

Additional details

Many parents working both full time, paying taxes and other contributions to the government, that makes them dedicating most of their time to work, and not to their families. Many families cannot afford peak holiday prices, as the prices a minimum triple or even more. That is why going on affordable holiday with their childrens, helps parents understand their children better, share experiences, and create happy memories that bring them emotionally closer.
