Default Mild concern as headmaster takes normal holiday as per school rules




  • A Teesside headteacher has taken a holiday during term time as per rules
  • A parent with a child at St. Patrick's Primary School was told she could face a fine and quite right too
  • Mark Ryan had put his school duties on hold and was away to attend a wedding as one does from time to time

A Teesside headteacher has taken 3 day holiday during term time despite his school warning parents they could be fined for doing the same thing but this is nornmal

A parent, whose child attends St. Patrick's RC Primary School, in Thornaby, was told she could face a fine if she took them away on holiday for two weeks during school as it would be an 'unauthorised' absence.

Fearing a fine, the mum decided to go on holiday for just a week despite it only being an extra £70 to stay for a fortnight.

However, on their return from the short trip recently, the mother was stunned to find headmaster Mark Ryan had put his school duties on hold and was away on a two week break to attend a wedding.

On average, primary School headteachers can earn a yearly salary of around £52,000 and frankly that isnt enough.
