Three terms. Sometimes six teaching blocks.
Calendars may show autumn, spring and summer terms, or split them into six periods around half-term breaks. A whole term span can include a mid-term holiday; do not count it as continuous pupil attendance.
Different places, different patterns.
England and Wales commonly use half-term breaks. Scottish calendars use October and February breaks and local September or May holidays. Northern Ireland has a national holiday calendar with school-specific variation.
The first day back needs its own check.
Term-opening dates, INSET days and pupil return dates can differ. We display an attendance return only where the source explicitly supplies it.
