Will you let your child stay off school on Monday to watch the football?

Description

England’s Head Coach Thomas Tuchel has suggested parents should consider keeping children off school on Monday morning if they’re too tired after staying up to watch England take on Mexico in the World Cup at 1am – and it’s sparked a huge debate among Mumsnet parents.

Some say one late night at the end of term is a memory worth making, while others think children should be in school regardless. Parents have also reported differing policies from schools, with some saying a doctor’s note would be required for any illness the following day, while others are allowing late starts.

What’s the policy at your child’s school – and would you make the same call?
