Going Away during the Summer Holidays
This year school students from almost three quarters (73%) of households with young people of school age went away on a holiday of at least a week, a rise of 2 percentage points on last year. In most cases (63%), all the children in a household went away (a rise of 3 points), with only one family in ten (10%) sending away only some of them. In the years since 1993, this year’s holidays are second only to those in 2018 regarding the percentage of young people going away.
