We are aware that on RARE occasions it is necessary for some families/carers to take their children out of school during term time, however, please bear in mind that this can have a detrimental effect on your child’s education. If you do wish to take your child out of school during term time please ensure that you:

•Complete the application form and return it to Mrs. Barlow, the Pastoral Manager before booking holidays/extended visits.

•The Head Teacher will inform you in writing of his decision as to whether the holiday/extended visit is authorised (rarely) or will be unauthorised (usually).

If your child has been given authorisation to go on holiday/extended visit but does not return by the agreed date then your child will be taken off roll and will no longer attend this school.

If your child has not been given authorisation to go on holiday/extended visit during term time please be aware that:

•Education Welfare Services will visit you at home to discuss the matter.

•If your child goes on an unauthorised holiday/extended visit then she/he will be taken off roll and will no longer attend this school.

 

When your child returns from an extended holiday, you must contact the school to make an appointment to see the Head Teacher before your child returns to school as there may no longer be a place available for them.

If you have any queries concerning the above please contact Mrs Barlow or Mr Smith on Rochdale 515872
