Decision:

a)    That  a consultation exercise be undertaken on the two proposed term date models for Leicestershire for the academic years 2027/28 to 2031/32, attached as Appendix A to the report;

 

b)    That the Cabinet receives a further report at its meeting on 8 September 2026 presenting the outcomes of the consultation and the recommended term date model.

 

(KEY DECISION)

 

REASONS FOR DECISION:

 

The Education Act 2002 places a statutory obligation on the County Council to determine the number of school days that schools under its control must open. The Council is required to determine a pattern that ensures at least 380 sessions (190 days) during each school year.

 

A public consultation process will seek feedback on two potential term date models to inform a recommended model for implementation.
