    Hi,
    Many schools take the view that pupils have long holiday periods each year, usually twelve weeks or more, and that taking leave above that amount - unless ill health demands it - should be avoided. This explains some of the recent furore in the media about families who have removed children from school to go on holidays or visits abroad during the term time. Most schools, however, understand that religious leave comes under a separate family need; it helps that most absences from school due to religious reasons do not last longer than a couple of days.

    So, in circumstances where a student needs to be away during term time, parents or guardians should contact the school as early as possible before the required leave, to ask permission for their child's absence. Even if the parent feels that the child should certainly be given leave, they should phrase the letter in terms of asking or requesting that leave, since the school's permission is discretionary, although for religious reasons it would be exceptional for this leave to be turned down.

    It is a good idea if the parent makes it clear that their child will be proactive (if the child is an older student) about asking teachers for the appropriate work to catch up on missed teaching time, and to reduce the impact on the child's learning and progress as well as potential disruption to the rest of the class.

    The letter format laid out below shows a good way to approach a school to ask permission for a child to miss school for two days for a religious festival. The letter written below can be used as an example of the ideal tone to write to a school to ensure the best kind of response.
