Liverpool entrepreneur in fashionable attack on 'no holidays in term time' rule

Entrepreneur and mother of six Amanda Moss says family time is becoming more fragmented

The founder of Liverpool Fashion Week has launched a controversial range of clothing to attack the education policy that fines parents who take children on holiday in term term time.

Amanda Moss a 43 year old business woman and mum of six says she's standing up to the tough line punishing parents for taking children on holiday in term time by designing a range of T-shirts featuring slogans like 'stop holiday price hikes’ and ‘The world: banned to British kids during term time’.

She says she wants to support the 70% of parents who cannot afford the inflated prices from travel companies during the school holidays.

‘Family comes first’ is the theme of this year’s Liverpool Fashion Week event, which for the first time will feature catwalk shows showing teenage and children’s fashion.

Liverpool Fashion Week is from the 13th until 17th October at Liverpool Football Club.

“I want to back like-minded parents who are unfairly at risk of getting criminal convictions for wanting to spend quality time with their children.

“Family time is becoming more fragmented but holidays are a good time to reconnect with each other and are important for children’s emotional and social development. Common sense must prevail.”
