Counting down to Monday, 7 September 2026
This is the usual date, not a confirmed one. The date moves from year to year, and your school or council publishes the real one. Use this as a rough guide, then put your own dates into the app once you have your timetable. That countdown will be exact.
About Going back to school
Most schools in England and Wales go back in the first week of September, with Scotland returning in mid August. New timetable, new subjects, and the best possible moment to put the whole year's dates in before term gets busy.
