Could anyone please tell me when the schools in their area beak up for Easter please?

I figured that the last day of the term would be Friday 27th March (so the Easter weekend is in the middle of the 2 weeks), but on Radio 1 today, some one text in saying it was their last day of term today!

I'm only wondering becuase I'm going to Alton on tuesday, I picked this day as I thought it would be dead, thinking that the schools weren't off until next week!

All the schools round here have still got a week before they break up.
But I'm not sure if Southern term dates are the same as the midlands.

Some schools break up late next week, but I don't think any are off on Tuesday.

The day should be pretty good for you :)

Some schools have broke up this week, but most including the Midlands don't break up until next Thursday/Friday.

I don't expect it to be that busy next week as like I say, the majority of schools are still in. You're probably looking at 15 minute queues max, if that!

Ok thanks guys!

I remember going to Alton a couple of years back on a quiet weekday just after it opened, it was awsome, no queue's at all, yet Rita and Air were running 2 trains!

I'm looking forward to getting a go on Spinball without using the single rider queue!
