Croydon

Who these dates actually bind

Since 2013, academies, free schools, voluntary aided and foundation schools have set their own term dates. Only community and voluntary controlled schools must follow the council. In Croydon that splits like this.

We don’t have Croydon’s term dates yet

When we have them they will apply to the 24 community and voluntary controlled schools below.
