Remove fines for parents taking children on school term-time family holidays

Petition Details

In 2013 the government changed the rules related to childrens absence from school. This resulted in two options for parents take a child out and risk a fine or pay a higher holiday cost. Both options cost working parents and are not workable. Sign this petition let's debate this issue in parliament.
