School holidays 2027
What are the UK school holidays for 2027?
These are the dates most of England follows for the breaks that fall in 2027, with the days either side you could fly on. Each break has its own page naming the councils that differ.
| Holiday | First day off | Last day off | Can fly | Councils that differ |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| February half term | Sat 13 Feb | Sun 21 Feb | Sat 13 Feb – Sun 21 Feb | 54 of 198 |
| Easter holidays | Fri 26 Mar | Sun 11 Apr | Fri 26 Mar – Sun 11 Apr | 55 of 200 |
| May half term | Sat 29 May | Sun 6 Jun | Sat 29 May – Sun 6 Jun | 20 of 180 |
| Summer holidays | Thu 22 Jul | Tue 31 Aug | Thu 22 Jul – Tue 31 Aug | 122 of 199 |
Your school may not follow these. Academies set their own dates and independent schools rarely match the council. Find your school’s own dates by name or postcode, and we price flights across every day of them.
