Hello all
im after some advice.
We recently took our autistic daughter on holiday in term time (this was a reschedule or a covid cancelled holiday). I asked for permission from the school and was advised the absence would be unauthorised. I explained we needed to go during school time due to it being quieter to no avail, the school was also fully aware that it had been difficult with our daughter having weekly therapy due to poor mental health (aka she had had a really tough 12 months and we wanted to treat her).
I’m asking for advice because both my husband and I have been fined separately (we are married and live together). I was expecting the fine but not both of us. I have looked at the local authority website and it does not state of both parents would be fined. I don’t know whether to challenge this or just pay it and save my energy?
Does anyone have any thoughts or experiences?
