Head teachers have the discretion to grant leave, but they should only do so in exceptional circumstances. If a head teacher grants a leave request, it will be for them to determine the length of time that the child can be away from school. This leave is unlikely, however, to be granted for the purposes of a family holiday. Parents can be fined for taking their child on holiday during term time without consent from the school. Please [contact the school](https://stjosephsblackhall.net/contact) if you wish to discuss this with the Headteacher. ### Parents - [Childcare Provision](https://stjosephsblackhall.net/parents/childcare-provision) - [Online Safety](https://stjosephsblackhall.net/parents/online-safety) - [School Letters](https://stjosephsblackhall.net/parents/school-letters) - [School Meals](https://stjosephsblackhall.net/parents/school-meals) - [School Uniform](https://stjosephsblackhall.net/parents/school-uniform) - [Starting School Guide](https://stjosephsblackhall.net/starting-school-guide) - [Term Dates](https://stjosephsblackhall.net/parents/term-dates) ![St. Joseph's Catholic Primary School, Blackhall](https://files.schudio.com/st-joseph-s-catholic-primary-school-blackhall/images/logo/logo-footer-with-diocese-02.png) ### St. Joseph's Catholic Primary School, Blackhall Coast Road Blackhall Colliery TS27 4HE 0191 586 4308 ### Trust Information - [Website Terms](https://bccet.org.uk/website-terms/) - [Accessibility Statement](https://bccet.org.uk/accessibility-statement/) - [Privacy Notice](https://bccet.org.uk/privacy-policy/) ### Social Media - [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/people/St-Josephs-Catholic-Primary-Blackhall/100075815209879) © Copyright 2025–2026 St. Joseph's Catholic Primary School, Blackhall School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://stjosephsblackhall.net/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
