Introduction

This article explains how to record term-time days as holidays (for example, May Day Bank Holiday), school closures (for example, snow days or polling days), or teacher training days. It also shows how to revert these days back to normal school days if recorded in error.

Any changes made to term dates in the past will affect attendance figures.
