Your school publishes its own dates
Rather than guess, we’ll read your school’s calendar. Paste its term dates and we’ll pick out the holidays and inset days, then show your cheaper windows.
Copy them from your school’s website or email. We’ll find the holidays and inset days.
Find your inset days
Inset days are set by each school, not the council. Search your email for ‘inset days’ or ‘term dates’ (schools usually send them in spring), or check your school’s website or app.
