Who agrees/disagrees with the schools fining parents if they take kids out for holidays in termtine?...taking in consideration that family holidays can be up to 3x the amount in school holiday times.
I totally don't agree as I know how hard it is to save so much more, or kids never go away...surely there has got to be a compromise like they take set work with them, or agree to catch up by doing extra at home when back....๐ค๐ค
Personally I think their whole attitude to school should be taken into account. ย If the children are diligent and never miss school then I think they can probably afford to have a holiday. ย If they're behind with their work and always taking odd days off then it's fair to fine them.ย
Where do schools do that? It is interesting. I can see the schools perspective due to disruption to the class and the students learningย
14- kids should stay in school
(M11C20) ย Before I can form my opinions, I would love to learn more about the logic behind this policy's pros and cons and how the UK came to make this decision. ย I Googled this subject, but I did not find any satisfying results. ย I never heard of any society and culture with school absentee issues so serious that fining them was necessary.
Interesting topic, as i have been in Hong Kong for years parents never want their children to miss school at all.ย
