Re: school
Teachers don't get "11 weeks off" - they get 11 weeks not in school but the majority of that time is still spent working.
At present parents can be fined £100 for taking a child on holiday without permission but this year I asked for permission for my youngest daughter to have a week off in order to go on holiday with my s-i-l who booked the week before half term thinking it was half term. This was granted after having been put to the head and the LEA. They look at each case individually and take into account (amongst other things) attendance and how well they are doing at school.
