Two weeks time off school during term times. Allow kids to live and explore.
To allow the kids to have two weeks of leave during term times as the prices of holidays are not affordable during half term which doesn’t allow families to spend quality time and that impacts a mental health and promotes depression along parents.
We should be able to take kids away from school for at least two weeks a year to allow them to travel the world and get to know the other cultures without paying fines. Allow the teachers to send the homework to the e-mails so the kids stay updated on school progress during their absence.
Most of the countries allow children to have holidays outside of half-term times and this promotes healthy breaks vital for mental health and well-being of the whole families.
