In England the school holidays have just started and will be over in early September. Yet in Northern Ireland?

Question

...the holidays started in late June. Do English kids get longer holidays at Easter and Christmas?

Answer 1

yeah probs

Answer 2

Children are required to attend school for a minimum of 190 days a year, teachers attend for an additional 5 for training purposes.

Generally the holidays are organised like this:

6 weeks summer holiday

2 weeks Easter

2 weeks Christmas

3X1 week mid term

Answer 3

I live in scotland and we get 7 and a half weeks, from end of june to aug 20th or somethin xD

Don't know about england, or northrn ireland lol

Answer 4

English schools get a few half term breaks. Whereas Northern Irish schools do not. So the Northern Irish schools have longer summer holidays. I think both countries get the same amount of time off roughly. Just not at the same time

In total i have about 9 weeks of holidays. Including a week off early because of GCSE's. I think its a bit long

Answer 5

a week off in nov

6 weeks 4 xmas

3 weeks 4 easter

and break up in may
