2026–2027 academic year
Key Dates
Everything in the school year at a glance — assemblies, class events, parents’ evenings, trips, and the days school is closed. Term dates and the school day are on our Term Dates & The School Day page.
Please note: all dates may be subject to alteration or cancellation. Any changes will be shared with you as soon as possible through the school newsletter and SchoolPing. We also run parent and carer workshops through the year, and details of those are shared the same way.
