Teacher Training Days in Peterborough

Maintained schools have 5 discretionary training days per year for teachers. These are not shown on the main calendar because each school chooses its own dates. Always check your child’s school website for exact closure days. Academies and trust schools often schedule these days differently, so do not assume they match the Peterborough term dates above.

Bank Holidays & School Closures

Schools are also closed on bank holidays UK dates. The GOV.UK bank holidays page lists all national public holidays. If a bank holiday falls during term time, the school remains closed. Easter Monday, May Day, and Spring Bank Holiday affect the Easter break and summer half-term weeks most often.
