Earlier this year, the Supreme Court ruled that parents can be criminalised for taking their children out of school without permission during term-time.
A new survey from GoCompare Travel Insurance, found that more than half (53%) of parents of school-age kids would be prepared for their children to miss five or more school days per academic year in order to go on holiday.
11% of parents also revealed that they would lie to the school about these absences, “reporting their kids as sick when they are in fact on a term-time holiday.”
