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
In line with DfE national guidance, the school 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 it would have been during their original school’s normal holidays. We will need to see confirmation that the booking was made before they referred to Three Towers.
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 / Exam Season
Holidays during exam seasons will not be authorised. 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.
