• Term time holidays - latest news from Essex County Council

  Wed 22 Mar 2023

  Important information - Term time holidays
  Improving school attendance is a key priority for all schools across Essex. Where families choose to take a family holiday during term time, this can detrimentally impact a pupil’s progress and can prevent them from fulfilling their true academic potential. Our school attendance policy, available via our school website, clearly sets out the process that parents should follow if they wish to apply for leave during term time. Please note that applications should only be made, if you feel that there are exceptional circumstances which mean that the leave cannot be taken during the school holidays. 

  We would ask all parents to note that, where families choose to go on holiday during term time and the absences are coded as unauthorised, Essex County Council may not issue penalty notices and may instead proceed to prosecution and place the case directly before the Magistrates for their consideration in court. 

  If found guilty by the Magistrates, parents could face a fine of up to £2,500 and/or 3 months imprisonment.

  Active Essex in conjunction with Essex County Council have produced a leaflet outlining a range of services, resources and information to help out during this difficult time.
