Holidays in Term Time:
A reminder that we DO NOT authorise holiday during term time. Leave of absence applications are intended for families where there is an exceptional circumstance that requires a child to be away from school. If you do feel that you have an exceptional reason for requesting leave of absence, please complete a leave of absence form, available from the school office. Holiday taken during term-time has an impact on your child’s learning and attainment. In line with Government advice, if children are taken out of school without the Headteacher’s authorisation, a penalty notice may be issued.

Paper copies of all documents are available upon request from the school office. Please contact us on 01332 571231 or by email to admin@oakwoodj.odysseyct.org.uk
