As mentioned in the Centre Parcs thread.
Why do we have uniformed holidays?
I'm dead set against taking our children out of school, just for a holiday, but it's bloody impossible to argue against.
£500-£1000 price difference for the sake of one week is borderline criminal, the whole system is set up for people/parents to be fleeced.
Naturally Christmas Easter and Summer can't be moved, although a weeks movement either side couldn't hurt.
But surely West Sussex, the Lesser half of Sussex, Kent and Surrey, could all stagger half-terms, it would make so much more sense.
