Derbyshire

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 Derbyshire that splits like this.

We don’t have Derbyshire’s term dates yet

When we have them they will apply to the 197 community and voluntary controlled schools below.
