2024 school term dates for state schools in Shropshire and Telford
It's only a few days until the magic of Christmas is well and truly over as the kids go back to school.
After a fortnight off for the festive season, children at schools run by Shropshire and Telord & Wrekin Councils will be re-entering classrooms either later this week or at the start of next week.
For anyone whose thoughts have started turning to the next time pupils will be out of school - either to arrange a fun holiday, childcare, or even to work out when to go away at a time when it's a bit quieter without lots of children about - then these are the 2024 dates to remember.
