Holiday Dates
Please see below for the school term dates. Our families are reminded that holidays in term time are not permitted. The government make clear that Head Teachers may not grant any leave of absence unless there are exceptional circumstances which does not include holiday. The regulations also set out procedures for issuing penalty notices (fines) to each parent who fails to ensure their children’s regular attendance at school. If you wish to request an absence from school you must complete a form which can be collected from the school office. These will then be reviewed by Mrs Turner.
Our Attendance Page provides you with information about attendance and absence at Archibald.
