Term Dates

For many of the college’s courses starting in September, main examinations will begin in May. Some courses will have assessment or coursework deadlines stretching across the academic year. For these reasons, except in exceptional circumstances, we will not normally authorise holidays in term time. If any parent/carer believes that there are exceptional circumstances around the trip, this must be discussed in advance of booking the holiday.
