Petition Action

Parents to take their children out of school any time for 2 weeks each year.

Petition Details

I think this would be a great idea because holidays during normal school holidays are too expensive, but going on holiday is good for parents and children and should be available to as many people as possible.

Additional Information

This 2 weeks will be deducted from normal holiday periods. Teachers should also be allowed 2 weeks off of their own choosing.
For example, instead of 6 weeks off during the summer, this could be reduced to 4 weeks and the other 2 weeks left for parents to take off as they please.
