Hi tuite02
I think primary schools have to open for a minimum of 183 days per year while secondary schools have to open for 167 days. Hope that helps.

Can you tell me how many days do primary schools have to open for each year?

You are allowed a certain number without the authorities being informed. Use good judgement and always explain the reasons for absence and adhere to school policy. As long as it doesn´t exceed the number (I think it is more than 2 weeks but do not quote me) then it should be acceptable as a one off!

All the best,
Frances

I´m thinking of taking the kids a way for a couple of weeks holidays in January. Unfortunately the kids will only have returned to school for a week before we go away but its the only time we can get an affordable package. Should I say anything to the school about it before I book or just go ahead and do it?
