Planning Ahead for the Academic Year

Please check our published term dates before booking family holidays or travel. Regular attendance helps children make steady progress and feel settled with their friends and teachers, so we ask that holidays are taken outside term time. You can read more about why attendance matters in the GOV.UK guidance on school attendance.

Term dates are set well in advance and rarely change. If we need to make an update, we’ll tell parents directly and update this page. If you have a question about the calendar, please contact the School Office. To learn more about the school day, clubs, and activities, visit our School Life page.
