Term datesEastbourne College

Eastbourne • BN21 4JXLocal authority: East Sussex

These are Eastbourne College's own term dates for 2026/27, 2027/28, 2028/29 and 2029/30 — 2025/26 filled from East Sussex council's calendar for now.

Details

The school's own dates are read from eastbourne-college.co.uk. The school hasn't published 2025/26 yet, so those years are filled from East Sussex 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.
