Is a two-week half-term a good deal? Some parents in England aren't so sure

Wow 🤩! So many good and bad things about this extended break thingy... I mean, on one hand, teachers getting a longer break sounds awesome, and if it means they're more refreshed at school, that's a win-win for everyone! But, ugh, the financial burden on parents who can't afford it is just awful 💸. Like, what's the point of having a longer break if you gotta stress about where to find affordable childcare? And, honestly, I think tour operators are gonna take advantage of this and hike prices... not cool 😒. But, at least we're seeing some benefits like lower absence rates and improved attendance, which is def a plus 👍.
