Don't pay the fine. Fining somebody for taking THEIR CHILD on holiday is absolutely outrageous. All that authorities do these days is dream up new and exciting ways to punish and fine us. They get enough money off us with the disproportionate amount of tax we pay. I'd rather do a month in jail than pay them. It's the principle.

It's the system that you sign up to when you send your child to a state school. If you don't like it you always have the option of educating your children privately at home

Can't argue with any of that. A wake up call.

Taking kids out of school for a week or two when not at all necessary and putting a pool ahead of their education and social life is plainly not the correct decision.

A cultural trip for a few days fair do's as that will broaden their horizons.

I'm at centre parcs now , my 2 oldest didn't go in yesterday and won't be back until Tuesday.
i didn't even think about it, better ask my Mrs if the school know , the old bill might be running round Orpington looking for a missing family, they'd better check the lazy river in Woburn

If I knew who Nicky Morgan is , I would mate.

I haven't and will not sign up to a system that dictates, bullies and then punishes when it can't get it's own way. Enough is enough. These tin pot tyrants will no longer get away with it.
