Term dates
Typically the academic year starts in the September of a calendar year but it can also start at other times as well. Some courses follow different academic years e.g. NHS courses. Please check with your school.
Teaching blocks are composed of teaching, assessment/examination weeks and study break; dates of these may vary according to which programme you are enrolled on.
Student breaks follow the assessment weeks in each semester. In general, there will be no teaching or exams on English public and bank holidays.
