Term datesEton College

Windsor • SL4 6DWLocal authority: Windsor and Maidenhead

These are Eton College's own term dates for 2026/27 and 2027/28 — read from etoncollege.com. The school hasn't published 2025/26 yet, so those years are filled from Windsor and Maidenhead 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.

How we read these
  1. 1Opened the term-dates page on etoncollege.com.
  2. 2Read the dates off the page with our language model.
  3. 3Kept 40 dates of the school's own for 26/27, 27/28; 25/26 is Windsor and Maidenhead council's dates until the school publishes its own — and we re-check every few days, so they stay right on their own.
