Holidays in term-time
Parents should avoid taking their children out of school during term-time in order to go on holiday.
Both the school and Cambridgeshire County Council discourage you from doing this and may not agree to give your child leave. Parents do not have any right or entitlement to expect term-time leave to be granted. Schools can, at their discretion, grant up to 10 days leave each school year but we will be reluctant to do this if we believe that your child’s education will suffer as a result.
Requests for your child to be absent from school due to holidays must be made to the Headteacher in writing. Crosshall Junior School will not authorise holidays during the first half term of the academic year and during test periods. These dates are available from the school office.
