When are 2022 school holidays and term dates in Manchester?

Most schools are only just heading back for the new term this week but it won’t be long til February half-term is upon us again.

Whether you are booking your annual leave already to cover school holidays or want to plan a much-needed trip away, here is a look ahead to when the main term start and end dates are in 2022 in Manchester.

Most local schools in the Manchester City Council area share the same holiday dates but some voluntary-aided, foundation, or academy schools can be different, so it’s best to check with your child’s school if you are unsure. In addition, in-set days for teacher training on top of holidays can also vary by school.
