Thoughts?

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.

Basically poor kids aren't allowed to go on holiday. Aren't allowed to go during term time, can't afford to go during holidays. It's such a dystopic rule.
