Argyll and Bute Council’s Community Services Committee has agreed the school holiday dates for 2020-2023.
The dates were proposed following consultation with schools and parent councils during 2018. They were then agreed by the Head Teacher Advisory Group, the Local Negotiating Committee for Teachers (LNCT) and the Joint Service Committee (JNC).
The dates include two additional in-service days for 2019-20 which were announced by the Scottish Government.
These the school holiday dates for 2018-19 and 2019-20.
