Ok thats definitely different. Kids in Germany are required to attend school. Reasons not to go are illness, death of a family member and things like that. Of course there is some way to discuss and get the schools permission but without it, there is not way. Could be similar in the Netherlands.
Hi Folks It's not so strict in the UK, I mean I will still have to coerce the school to give my son 'authorised absence' but I know of other parents that have done this for other reasons, extended holidays in far away countries for example. I'll certainly consider bringing my family to the next meeting, thanks for inviting me to the group. -- Daniel Holme
