Application for Leave during Term Time

Oak Trees Multi Academy Trust believes that every child should attend school regularly to ensure that they achieve their potential educationally and socially, a view that Church Drive Primary School wholeheartedly supports.

At each Oak Trees school, parents/carers must ask permission for their child to be absent during term time and it is at the Headteacher’s discretion to decide if the absence will be authorised. The Headteacher may authorise leave during term time for exceptional circumstances only. If leave is taken without permission, or no application is made, parents/carers risk being issued with an Education Penalty Notice.
