College Half Terms

[dawg]

Do the colleges have half terms that you can actually do non college things in for a break from it?

Assuming all phase 1s are going to be Sep 6th - Dec 17th this year, does that mean there'd be a week off in the last week of October as schools and other colleges do?

Re: College Half Terms

There is no october break at Warsash... I think there is a bank holiday at some point in October / November... but otherwise you are there from September / October - a few days before Christmas.

In a nutshell, No. But you do get bank holidays off.

Re: College Half Terms

At University of Plymouth we only have the three normal breaks a year. During Christmas and Easter we get around 3 weeks but we usually have to use this time to do our STCW courses such as Fire-Fighting, First Aid, PSSR and Personal Survival etc...
