The Headmaster of our local School at the time asked me for proof when we took my daughter/stepdaughter out of school for 4 days to travel to Scotland to let her Mourn with her family and attend her Grandads funeral.
My reply was long winded and not very pleasant but he didnt ask again. Some things in life are far more important.
Education doesnt start and stop inside the School gates far from it.

Family,Travel and life experience far out weigh missing 2-3 weeks of any robotic poorly funded treadmill that is intended to churn out corporate money motivated clones.
I would rather turn out a free happy young adult than a government trained obedient one ready to serve,obey,breed and die.

Good on this fella for being willing to take it all the way.
