Head teachers have the discretion to grant leave, but they should only do so in exceptional circumstances. If a head teacher grants a leave request, it will be for them to determine the length of time that the child can be away from school. This leave is unlikely, however, to be granted for the purposes of a family holiday. Parents can be fined for taking their child on holiday during term time without consent from the school. An application form for taking your child out of school in term time due to exceptional circumstances can be downloaded from our **[School Office](https://st-wilfrid-s-r-c-v-a-primary-school-2.schudio.com/parents/school-office/)** page. Please **[contact the school](https://st-wilfrid-s-r-c-v-a-primary-school-2.schudio.com/contact)** if you wish to discuss this with the Headteacher. Durham County Council have produced a fact sheet on holidays in term time, which can be downloaded below.
