School recommended term dates and holidays

We publish recommended term dates for all schools annually. The majority of Warrington schools have the same or similar to the recommended dates including all community schools, but some voluntary-aided and academy schools may differ.

All residents and pupils should check their individual school websites to confirm term dates and holidays. Links to schools websites are available via Primary schools list and Secondary schools list
