Free school's 42-week year

From Hemel Today:  Dr Sue Attard, Executive Head of Jupiter Community Free School, part of West Herts Community Free School Trust - announced 'the introduction of an extended 42-week year, allowing parents to take their children on holiday for two weeks of term time without reducing the amount of time they spend on teaching and learning... The final two weeks of the year will still have an educational focus but will be more relaxed.'

The paper said: 'Dr Attard will split her time between Jupiter and a similar school in Hatfield, itself set up just two years ago.'
