School term dates


Schools must be open for 190 days to pupils, and an extra 5 days for teacher training each academic year.

Some schools in North East Lincolnshire follow the term dates and teacher training days set by the Local Authority. However, most schools follow a different pattern. We advise that you check your child’s school website.
