Cumberland issued 1,738 fines in 2024/25 for parents taking children on term-time holidays, a sharp rise from previous years, due to new national guidance requiring penalties for unauthorised absences of 10 or more school sessions.
Fines are £80 if paid within 21 days or £160 if paid within 28 days, with a second offence within three years costing £160.
Only 1,362 of the 2024/25 fines were paid.
Councils review each case individually and offer support for families facing challenges like special needs or mental health issues.
