SCHOOL HOLIDAY DATES
Term dates
In September 2005, East Sussex moved to a standard school year with terms of more equal length than before. There is now a fixed spring break rather than allowing Easter to determine the date of the holiday. As before there is still a one week holiday in autumn, February and early summer. The summer holiday has remained the same length.
Four days are allocated for staff training, when the schools is closed to pupils. The dates of these extra days are not fixed by the Children's Services Authority and will be advised - see our calendar for details.
