Aylesford School does not hold INSET days during the school term therefore we provide a 2-week October half term with students still receiving their full 190 days of statutory education.

Staff training is completed throughout the year during evening sessions. School holiday periods are used for an extensive timetable of intervention sessions for GCSE and A level classes. This gives parents additional options and greater scope for planning holidays and avoiding holidays being taken in term time.

Where possible bank holidays are incorporated into School holiday periods and school terms start and end on Mondays and Fridays.
