Education minister Damian Hinds has outlined higher fines that could be issued for pupils' unauthorised absences from school.
Charges for parents whose children miss school will rise by at least £20 as part of an "attendance drive" from the government.
The cost of a fine will rise from £60 to £80 if paid within 21 days, and from £120 to £160 if paid within 28 days, the DfE said.

So why isn't he getting the travel companies and airlines to stop artificially inflating the prices during school holidays? Surely that's a better solution than the "legal for a price" one here?

Well, if a child's education is "SO" important and parents are being fined ( taxed) for taking them out of school for holidays. Then why are there so many INSET days? They should come out of a teachers holidays "NOT" out of a child's education.

Imagine putting a good hard working parent in prison, literally destroying a family, all for trying to be a good parent and being present in their child’s life, making memories on a family holiday. Scumbags, do something about the holiday companies ramping up the prices for out of term holidays.
