Please help me decipher these school holidays 😬

For some reason, I've stopped being able to understand when school breaks up and when it opens again. I'm trying to book a break but can't until I get my head around it. The more I stare at it, the harder it gets. Anyone got a clue? Other parents are confused too 😅

Summer term starts 15th Apr and ends 24th May

There's then half term holiday 27th May until 31st May

Second half of summer term is 3rd June to 23rd July

Summer holiday starts 24th July

It looks like the table is shown as a column on a mobile/ iPad - try turning it to landscape and the table might sort itself out

I agree with 123ZYX.
The table has just distorted, but read event, starts, ends, in order for each event rather than all events, all starts, all ends.

You need the bit below that is cut off that explains when the term ends and then match up the dates.

What a strange way to write it. Once I got my head round it, it made sense. But it shouldn't be an effort to read. I wonder if they are meant to be side by side instead of listed like that.

Term starts on the 15th April, Easter holidays will have been the 2 weeks before this, but start date of Easter hols isn't shown.

They are off for half term 27th May to 3rd June, then break up for summer on the 24th July.

Write it on a diary or calendar then it'll make sense
