Make all school holidays commence on the same dates in the UK

Closed 52 signatures

What the petition asks

As a school staff myself and a parent with school age children school holidays are the only times we can go on vacation, plan family get togethers, weddings etc
However due to the last few years of change of term time holidays-holidays have not been pleasant to look forward to.
Children cannot have fun without relatives.
Children at home and school complaint how irrelevant and boring these holidays have become and how they had nothing to do as most of their relatives and families live in other cities.

I continue to hear the same complaints from colleagues, parents in playgrounds and family/friends and I am concerned that no step has been taken to resolve this...

I hope everyone will support this petition
And the parliament takes action on this ASAP

THANK YOU
