Asides from what was mentioned in the article, I think the current rules are unforgiving of children who have family abroad whose school holidays don’t align.

    Mrs Melling said she took her children out of school during term due to the “unbelievable price” of holidays in the summer months.

    One travel agent told the BBC that holiday costs can be as much as 40% higher during the school holidays.

    “It was £5,500 to go in the summer and to go in February it was £2,500, it’s a no brainer,” Mrs Melling said.

    Yes, the reason it costs more is because everyone else is following the rules
