Term Dates
IMPORTANT NOTE: These dates are the official school and are different to those published by Wigan Council.
Parents / carers should be aware that taking holidays at times other than these can be extremely disruptive to your child’s education. This is particularly important for those preparing for public examinations.
Holidays during term time - as we must follow the DfE statutory guidance, we will not normally agree to your child missing school for family holidays except in exceptional circumstances, for example if your child has moved to Three Towers during the academic year and at the time of booking the holiday would have fallen during their original school’s normal holidays. We will need to see confirmation of when the original booking was made in order to authorise the holiday.
Dual-registered learners - if your child is dual registered with Three Towers and another school, we will discuss holiday patterns with you when your child starts with us.
Holidays during SATs / KS4 Exam Season - will not be authorised as the dates for SATs, GCSE and other externally accredited courses are set nationally and Three Towers cannot move the dates so if your child is absent then they will miss the exam.
