The ongoing issue over whether parents should be allowed to take their children on holiday during term time will come to a head on Monday evening when MPs debate the subject in Parliament.

The debate was triggered after a petition attracted more than 200,000 signatures calling for the penalties – which were introduced in 2013 – to be scrapped and a term-time holiday allowance to be reinstated.

Have the rules altered the way you plan your holidays? Tell us whether you have taken your child(ren) on holiday during this school year, or if you are planning to do so, by responding to the poll below.
