Leave of absence request

If you need to make a request for a leave of absence this must be made in advance of the absence. All requests must be made at least two weeks prior to the absence but ideally before you make any travel arrangements. This should be done using the application form below. You can collect hard copies from the school office if needed.

The form must be fully completed, and you will receive a written response confirming if the request will be authorised or not.

Any absence that has not been requested in advance cannot legally be authorised even if deemed to be exceptional circumstances.

Please contact the school office if you have any queries relating to these regulations.

Please note; these are National regulations that the school are obliged to enforce.
