Academic Year 2019-20 & 2020-21
Many thanks to everyone who gave us feedback on the proposed term dates for 2019/20 and 2020/21. In total, we had over 100 responses from staff and parents with overwhelming support for the proposed dates, which are in line with Leicestershire County Council (LCC) and include an early autumn half-term break and an early start to the summer holidays.
Following the feedback, the proposed term dates for 2019/20 and 2020/21 were confirmed in July 2018.
For reference, the term dates for the next 3 years are available for download below, including the previously published dates for 2018/19 where the October half-term is one week later than the LCC dates.
