When setting term and holiday dates,  Solihull Local Authority take the following factors into consideration:

•   A school year must be 195 days with 190 teaching.

•   Solihull schools set their own 5 training days.

•   The school year should start as close to the 01   September as possible.

•   The teaching week at the start or end of terms of not   less than 3 school days.

•   The teaching week to start on Monday and finish on   Friday if possible.

•   Christmas Break of 2 weeks.

•   Spring Break to include Easter Bank Holiday weekend   and encompass 3 weekends.

•   Equalise as far as possible teaching periods.

•   Match as closely as possible neighbouring authorities,   main exceptions are often September start or matching   half terms to meet the needs of non-Christian holy   days.
