‼️👉🏼 EAST AYRSHIRE COUNCIL CONSULTATIONS SCHOOL TERM DATES 👈🏼‼️

Please see below the proposed 4 different options for the school session 2027/2028.

Parent councils have been asked to collate this information - please do so by letting us know your preferred option, this can be done by commenting below or emailing [email protected]

East Ayrshire Council also shared the below message:

‘We have delayed consulting until now as we were aware that both North and South Ayrshire were looking to introduce a change to the normal term dates pattern to accommodate a two-week break in October. It is our understanding that they will adopt this pattern.

We have considered four options two with a one-week break in October (option 1 & 2) and two with a two-week break (option 3 & 4). As is normally the case we have also taking into account the term dates being set by North and South Ayrshire.’

We ask this be done by Monday 22nd June. Thank you.
