As we speed towards the end of the academic year and gear up for [summer 2022](https://www.gostudent.org/en-gb/blog/ways-to-study-for-school-over-the-summer), some of you may be looking to the next academic year and wondering when the half-terms and school holidays will fall – eager to get your calendars organised, [plan for Christmas](https://www.gostudent.org/en-gb/blog/how-to-maintain-peace-over-christmas) and maybe even book a family trip away. ☀️

Fail to plan and you plan to fail! Getting these all-important dates in the diary now means you can take your foot off the pedal before the [summer months](https://www.gostudent.org/en-gb/blog/summer-learning-activities) arrive, leaving you to focus on the more important things – like soaking up some sunshine. 

Parents in England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland can use these dates to guide their planning – just remember, always [check with your child's school](https://www.gostudent.org/en-gb/blog/parent-teacher-communication) for their exact term dates. 👇![child wearing school bag](https://www.gostudent.org/hs-fs/hubfs/Insights_GoStudent_Blog_Images/school-bag-kid%20(1).jpg?width=1000&name=school-bag-kid%20(1).jpg)

## School holidays 2022 across the UK

 

The fact that the UK is a political union between four nations – England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland – with varying levels of autonomy and independence means that mapping the [school holidays 2022/23](https://www.gostudent.org/en-gb/blog/ways-to-study-for-school-over-the-summer) is no easy task! 😅

The dates of school holidays in the UK are determined by the respective education departments of each country. In England and Wales, Local Education Authorities – LEAs – are responsible for setting their own term and holiday dates each year. 

In [Scotland](https://www.gostudent.org/en-gb/blog/school-in-scotland), holiday dates are set by each of the 32 council areas and in [Northern Ireland](https://www.gostudent.org/en-gb/blog/grammar-schools-in-northern-ireland), although holiday dates are announced at a council level, they tend to be the same across the entire region.

While each nation follows the same three-term-per-year model, the start and end date of each term can vary by more than a week from country to country. So, always check with your child's school for their exact term dates! 🚸

 

### School holidays 2022 in England

 

In England, holiday dates are set by each of the 152 Local Education Authorities. This table contains the 2022 and 2023 school holidays as published by [essex.gov.uk](https://www.essex.gov.uk/school-terms-and-holidays/academic-year-2022-to-2023) to give you a guide.

### Bank holidays 2022/23

 

Bank holidays are national public holidays – traditionally used to celebrate the days that banking institutions close for business – now they are celebrated nationwide. Most workplaces will close for the day, [shops](https://www.gostudent.org/en-gb/blog/tips-to-avoid-shopping-scams), if open, will operate on reduced hours and schools will also close. 🏖️

Again, bank holidays vary a little between England & Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland so we’ve pulled together a handy table so that you can see which bank holidays apply to [you and your family](https://www.gostudent.org/en-gb/blog/step-parenting-blended-families) at a glance for the academic year 2022/23.

Remember, if a bank holiday is on a weekend, a ‘substitute’ weekday becomes a bank holiday, normally the following Monday. 🙌
