Schools: Academic Year
(asked on 17th December 2024) - View Source
Question to the Department for Education:
To ask His Majesty's Government how many sessions each local authority-maintained school and each Academy school provided education in the 2022–23 school year; and what was the proportion of Academies that provided fewer than 380 sessions in that year.
This question was answered on 3rd January 2025
The information requested is not held centrally.
Under the Education (School Day and School Year) (England) Regulations 1999, local authority-maintained schools are required to meet for at least 380 sessions or 190 days in each school year.
Academies are not bound by these regulations. The length of the school year is the responsibility of the academy trust.
