Rejected petition Give children appropriate time for a holiday if attendance is excellent no fines

I think it is unfair that the new fines for taking children out of school. If the child has 98 - 100% attendance. Fines shouldn't be applied. A week off for a child that has persistent excellent attendance it's the same as a child being ill for a week or a few days out of the year .

More details

I want the government to reassess the new fines and not make it for everyone as I feel it's very unfair.
