Term Dates & Inset Days

For Thomas A Becket Infant School, term dates and inset (teacher training) days are published to help parents plan childcare and family schedules. Inset days are non-pupil days when the school is closed to children, but staff attend training. Please check the school website and any official communications for the most up-to-date calendar, including start and finish dates for each term and any changes that may be announced throughout the year.
