MORE than 1,000 Herefordshire parents have been fined for taking their children out of school during term-time since tough new regulations were introduced three years ago. But after a slight rise in cases in 2014/2015, more Ledbury parents appear to be heeding the warnings, as local statistics show an apparent fall for the present year. Figures from Herefordshire Council show there were less than ten Ledbury parents fined for taking their children on holiday during term time, during 2013/2014. This rose to 25 in 2014/2015; but the figure so far for this period, 2015/2016, shows a fall to just 15 cases in Ledbury. In this respect, Ledbury is bucking the trend for the county.
