School Holiday Percentages 2024/25
This resource contains the population weighted percentage of Public schools on holiday across GB and for each Local Authority as well as the population multipliers given to each Local Authority.
This resource is constructed using the data which is available from the various local authorities websites on the school holiday periods. As private schools manage their holidays separately, they have been excluded from the dataset for now, but we are looking whether these can be included.
The City of London local authority does not coordinate school holidays as most of the schools there are private. It has been excluded for now but may be included in future if private schools are included.
This data is used as an input into our demand models.
