公立学校:如果未经同意学期中带孩子出去旅行那每个孩子父母要被council罚款60胖子,两个孩子的话就是2x2x60=240了,22天内不交加倍,这个罚款是council罚的(和park ticket一样)和学校无关,罚款的数目不大,有些popular的学校会被除名的。
如果在学期中带孩子出去,那要向学校申请,在exceptional circumstance的情况下可以批准,但这个exceptional circumstance没有定义,完全靠校长决定。 https://www.gov.uk/school-attendance-absence/legal-action-to-enforce-school-attendance
