Petition Action

Allow parents to take their children out of school for up to 10 days fine free.

Petition Details

We believe that parents should have the ability to take their children out of school for 10 days per year without a fine or a criminal conviction.

Additional Information

We also believe that children need breaks sometimes due to stress, anxiety and much more as school can be a tough time for them. Another reason towards this is that families want to go on holiday during term time because of cheaper tickets.
