Dear parent/carer

New School Dates 21-22

Please find draft revised school session dates 2021/22 here. As part of East Lothian’s collaboration with neighbouring local authorities in preparing our draft school session dates for the three school sessions, 2022/23, 2023/24 and 2024/25, it has come to their attention that City of Edinburgh Council have made an amendment to their school session dates for next session, 2021/22.  As the practice in East Lothian is to align as much as possible with City of Edinburgh Council’s dates East Lothian have reviewed and amended our dates accordingly.  There are 2 changes to the revised draft dates as follows:

• Schools will finish on Friday 17^th December 2021 (instead of Thursday 23^rd December 2021) and return on Wednesday 5^th January 2022 (instead of Monday 10^th January 2022)
• Schools will close for the summer break on Friday 1^st July 2022 (instead of Thursday 30^th June 2022).

If you would like to comment on the revised draft school session dates please email sessiondates@eastlothian.gov.uk

The closing date for comments is Friday 9^th July 2021.

Best wishes,
