This page provides the term dates for all States schools until July 2024.
In addition to the dates below, each school can award an extra inset day for its students/pupils, in order to facilitate a Professional Development Day (PDD). Schools will advise parents and carers of this additional PDD day.
Please note parents/carers will be advised directly by schools at least one term in advance when in the school year, the additional Professional Development Day will take place.

2. In addition, teachers also attend on the day prior to the beginning of each term and the extra day. Teachers, therefore, attend 193 days when Liberation Day falls Monday-Friday and 194 otherwise.
