schools largely base their terms on the same dates you are
advised to see our
Catholic and Independent schools sections for help in finding their precise dates.

Take this into
account, too...
The effective school
vacation time can be slightly longer than the
official term dates would indicate:
The first or last day of a school term might be used as a
student free day (also called a professional
learning day).
Special student free days might be needed by a
new school at the beginning of the year.
Special student free days might be needed at the
end of one year and at the beginning of the following year when
a merger has resulted in a
new school.
Building activity can cause a
slight delay in the commencement of a term for an individual
school. |
