Under a rule introduced a few years ago, parents can excuse their children from missing school for five days a month. Officially, it is permissible to miss school in the event of illness, the death of a loved one, or, for example, a pre-planned visit to the doctor. It is an open secret that parents often use this opportunity to take their child on vacation.
