This page provides the term dates for all States schools until July 2020.
Term dates are agreed and published at least 18 months in advance. 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.

Guidance Notes
1. The School Calendar for pupils is 191 days. This includes Liberation Day, if it occurs Monday to Friday and the extra day. Students, therefore, attend 189 days when Liberation Day falls Monday-Friday and 190 otherwise.
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.
