Petition Action

To allow children to take one week per year off school for a family holiday

Petition Details

Give permission to allow families to all have the benefits of a family holiday anytime of the year. Just one week. The parents will still have to hand in a notice and give a certain time period beforehand.

Additional Information

If the children are allowed to take 1 week per year for a family holiday this would help with tourism, families being able to afford to go on holiday and the benefits for the children outweigh what they would be missing in the days of school taken off.

Children are missing out on family time which is so important.
Companies are closing down or barely surviving out of season.
For everyone's mental health this would be extremely beneficial.
