Who are we consulting and why?
We are consulting the public on our planned school terms dates, to give an opportunity to raise any issues before they are confirmed. As in previous years, we have had discussions with our neighbouring authorities to try to offer similar term dates, for the convenience of parents and carers.
What are we consulting on?
These are the proposed school term dates for the 2022 to 2023 academic year. This represents a 195-day school year, which includes 5 in-service training days, when teachers will attend, but students will not.
