Schools in Manchester have broken up for the Easter holidays, and the bank holidays are here, with many people getting a long weekend.

With this year bringing large parts of the country with nothing but bad weather, Easter is usually the turning point weather wise, and starts the countdown for the summer weather.

Parents will be hoping the weather will be on their side, as children look to make the most of their holidays, getting out in the sun (hopefully!) as they enjoy a nice two-week break from school.

With a rumoured heatwave this month but also a rainy start to the first week of the school holidays, what will the weather be like for the rest of the Easter school holidays and the April bank holiday weekend?
