Decision details

In collaboration and co-ordination with Local Authorities in South West England, including neighbouring Local Authorities; Bath and North East Somerset, South Gloucestershire and North Somerset Bristol City Council is required to set Term Dates for the academic school year 2021/22 for Community and Voluntary Controlled School in Bristol. Other schools, which are not Community and VC schools, are responsible for setting their own dates so these may vary from those set by BCC.
The decision was put to public consultation running from 17th May to 28th April 2020. Consultation coincided with 2020 Covid-19 lockdown. Therefore, circulation and feedback was limited. However, responses received raised no objections to the proposed dates.
