I propose Cornwall has their summer school holiday is June and not August

Petition Details

Many families have to work in August under the work agreement(peak time). Tourists flood to Cornwall, preventing family time or going on holiday. All families should have quality family time as a human rights law but this is absent in tourist resorts, I suggest change the summer holiday.

Additional Information

We have a major issue in Cornwall in peak holiday time, childcare and work. Locals need to work in the busy period which unfortunately detracts from the quality family time. If the Cornish summer holiday is moved to June then it allows families quality time and also serve their employer in peak time. Childcare needs to be accessible for all workers meaning in holidays it will have tourists more as locals will be at school keeping the flow of the economy in the area for smooth running long-term.

School holiday dates are the responsibility of local councils or individual schools, depending on the type of school.

You could raise this with your local council, or with the school's governing body.
