Kennett follow Cambridgeshire County Council's set term dates, where possible. We have adopted this approach to support families with siblings that attend different schools.
We have five training days each year; these are an important part of our staff professional development programme. We are committed to strengthening standards of education and strive to support staff so that their knowledge and skills remain current and up-to-date. In this way, the Kennett team are able to deliver lessons of the highest possible standard.
Training days are typically added to the beginning - or the end - of school holiday periods; this often causes less disruption for families. We aim to publish term dates and training days well in advance, so that parents and carers are able to organise childcare arrangements.
