As a Derbyshire school, we follow Derbyshire County Council’s term dates. Please follow the links below for the current and forthcoming academic years’ dates:
In-Service Training Days (INSET)
In addition to annual holidays, schools are also allocated five INSET days each academic year to use at their discretion for training and staff development purposes. Occasionally, schools may also have to close due to maintenance works carried out by the utility companies.
Below is a list of when our school plans to be closed during 26/27 academic year. The list will be updated if any changes are made. We will confirm closure dates to all parents and carers via our usual communication channels i.e. newsletters, FaceBook and Dojo reminders and text messages.
- Friday 4th September 2026
- Monday 4th January 2027
- Friday 25th June 2027
- Monday 28th June 2027
- Monday 26th July 2027
From time to time, schools may need to close due to unplanned situations, such as extreme weather conditions, lack of water/food supply or emergency situations. Any such closures will be communicated to parents via text message.
In September 2013 the Education (Pupil Registration) (England) (Amendment) Regulations 2013 came into force. These regulations make it clear that Headteachers should not grant approval for any leave of absence during term-time, including holidays, unless there are exceptional circumstances.
