Why / when did every school holiday become half term?
The half term holidays are February, Whitsun and October, not Easter, Christmas and thr summer.
People keep saying "Happy half term" or "Enjoy the half term" etc. Why is this an accepted thing?
AIBU?
It's not bloody half term!

We are in Glasgow and never called any of the holidays half term, think it’s a regional thing. For us this is Easter holidays, then we have a few May long weekends, Summer holidays, September weekend, October break, then Christmas holidays, then February holiday etc.
never called them half term.
