Request for Leave
Taken from Bushey Primary Education Federation's Attendance Policy:
Parents do not have the right to take their child out of school for a holiday or any other reason. If in exceptional circumstances parents apply to the Headteacher, in writing, at least 2 weeks in advance, the school may grant authorised absence. Requests for absences will be considered individually. When making the decision the Headteacher will consider the following factors:
- the amount of time requested;
- age of the child;
- the child’s general absence/attendance record;
- proximity to SATs and assessment periods;
- child’s ability to catch up the work;
- child’s educational needs;
- general welfare of the child;
- circumstances of the request / purpose of the leave;
- frequency of the activity;
- when the request was made.
