When do we have holidays from schooling?Whenever you would like to is the short answer.
UK children are at school for 180 days out of a 365 day year. They therefore have 113 weekdays off school or 22 full weeks off school. Which is enormous. How Does Merit Home Ed suggest we proportion out holidays? |
Should we stick to term time of our local area?No. Unless you need or want to. There should be some cross over so the the child has more opportunities to form relationships with children that are in tradition schools like local friends or cousins.
Holidays are much cheaper out of school times and less busy allowing you to do more for less. |
