Leave of absence during term-time
  • In September 2013 the government introduced some significant changes to attendance regulations. The amendments set out in Education (Pupil Registration) (England) (Amendment) Regulations 2013 govern all requests for leave within term time. Headteachers may not grant any leave of absence during term time unless there are exceptional circumstances. it is also the headteacher's responsibility to determine the number of school days a child can be away from school if the leave is granted.

  • If you need to seek an absence during term time you will have to complete a  Leave of Absence Form available from the school office or see the link below; you will need to outline the exceptional circumstances that require the leave of absence and supportive evidence may be needed.

  • This should be done at least six weeks before the suggested leave of absence. Each application will be assessed on an individual basis by the headteacher and chair of governors and they must be satisfied that the circumstances warrant the granting of leave. All applications will be considered in the light of a child's attendance. Even in exceptional circumstances the request may not be considered if your child's attendance is below 95%.
