My Yr 7 daughter is going on a school trip at the beginning of July. The school has requested that she bring in her passport and EHIC card at the beginning of April, which the school then plans to keep for three months until the children go on the trip. Is this normal practice? The school is not applying for a collective passport. Although I'm happy to take in her passport so they can check and photocopy it, and to provide it a reasonable time in advance of the trip, it seems to me that 3 months is not a reasonable time period to keep a child's passport.
They are going to France for 4 days, ffs.
