Bohunt Horsham - Request to authorise an absence from learning due to exceptional circumstances

Schools are only able to authorise absence from school in exceptional circumstances. In making a request for an authorised absence from school you will need to explain why the circumstances are exceptional. Please note that it would be unlawful for the school to authorise an absence for a family holiday except in exceptional circumstances. 

Parents/carers should be aware that they could face a Penalty Notice in the event of removing their child from school during term time for five or more days in any ten-week period when this absence is unauthorised.

You are advised not to make any arrangements until your request has been considered.

Please note: This form is not intended for use for medical appointments. These should be emailed with a copy or screen shot of the appointment confirmation to enquiries@bohunthorsham.com
