Term datesThe Deanery Church of England High School and Sixth Form College
These are The Deanery Church of England High School and Sixth Form College's own term dates for 2026/27 and 2027/28 — read from deanery.wigan.sch.uk. The school hasn't published 2025/26 yet, so those years are filled from Wigan council's calendar: term dates and holidays, but not the school's own training days, usually five a year. Expect a few extra closed days. We re-check every few days and swap in the school's dates the moment they appear.
