Selfish parent forced to take child on holidays during School Holidays

[Rjk]

Schools could stagger their holidays.
Instead of a block of 6 weeks they could have everyone off for the same 2 weeks in the summer, then fit in the other 4 weeks wherever they see fit throughout the year. This will ease the supply and demand issue with holidays.

Secondaries and feeder primarys would have to match their dates though obviously.

This was suggested by a teacher mate of mine who says that after 6 weeks off they've forgotten every ****ing thing they've just learned anyway.

It's more Big Brother shite. Do as you're told, or else.

Schools staggering their holidays may help, but it's just going to extend the period of "high prices" from the holiday companies. Therefore, there needs to be Government regulation on prices in conjuntion with staggered holidays.
