Plans to change school summer holidays
School year dates in Wales will change as early as October 2025 with the summer holidays being shortened to either five or four weeks, under plans proposed by the Welsh Government.
Changes to the school year have been discussed for the last few years and now two options are being put out for consultation - to cut the break to five weeks and possibly to four. Read more detail here.
