flag UK parents may be fined up to £2,500 if children miss full-time education until age 16.

flag UK parents may face fines up to £2,500 if their children do not receive full-time education—either in school or through home education—until the last Friday in June of the year they turn 16. flag While most children start school in September after turning four, there is no legal requirement to begin at that age. flag Parents may delay enrollment, provided the child is registered by the September after their fifth birthday, and can opt for part-time or mid-year entry. flag Authorities typically issue warnings and offer support before considering penalties, emphasizing flexibility based on a child’s individual readiness.
