West Sussex County Council:School Term Dates

INSET dates for the current academic year [2023/24]

INSET stands for In-Service Education and Training days, and are the five statutory days when all schools close to children, to allow update training for teachers.  The dates are different in every school, but are typically at the very beginning or very end of each term.  (This goes a little way to allowing parents to go on holiday a day earlier or come back a day later!)
