rose markerTHE THREE TERMS

This is only an approximate guide below to our term dates. We follow the normal British system of three terms a year.

Registered families can see exact details on their "GO" page where current notices are displayed with links to this kind of information..

New enquirers concerned about any arrangements already booked for the family, please request current dates by email.

Our policy is to run short hardworking terms with efficient classes getting 100% homework done. We encourage as much free time as possible for family life. Our results show our strategy is far more effective than long hours, and long dragging terms. We want young people to enjoy lots of free time, family life and fun - because we do expect them to WORK when it is a workday, or work week.
