Birdham CE Primary School

Attendance

Parents are reminded that for all schools in England, there is no entitlement to holiday during term time.  All requests for absence during term time are discretionary, and most requests will be automatically unauthorised. From Sep-23, all requests of 10 sessions or more, (i.e. 5 days) will be referred to West Sussex Local Authority and are likely to result in a Fixed Penalty Notice (FPN) being issued by them.   As required by law, children are taught in school for a total of 32.5 hours per week.

This is an agreed policy between all Chichester Primary Schools.
