Parents will be gearing up for the school run once again as the kids go into their next academic year.
Between three different terms, Christmas , Easter and summer breaks and all the half-terms, it can be difficult to keep track of all the dates when your child reaches school age.
If you want to plan ahead, you can find dates for both this academic year and next below.
Parents should also remember that schools will also allocate five teacher training days each year, which will vary from school to school and could affect when terms start and end.
Below are the term dates for the next two academic years, based on dates listed on the Swindon Borough Council website for community and voluntary controlled schools in Swindon.
Academies, free schools, foundation schools and voluntary-aided schools are free to set their own term dates so you would need to double check on the individual school website to see if there are any differences.
