Easter school holidays 2023 Glasgow: When do schools break up for Easter and when do they return?

Spring is officially here, and that means the countdown to the two week Easter break is well under way - as if the shops being filled with Easter eggs already wasn’t a reminder enough! The Easter break always seems to come round quickly, and is the first proper break for children and teachers since Christmas.

While pupils across Glasgow get excited about the prospect of an extended break from classes, it is, however, still crucial for parents to ensure their children return to school on time. Therefore, knowing when their breaks are in advance helps with planning - especially to get day trips booked up.

Glasgow City Council have revealed their full list of term dates for schools across the city, so parents can plan ahead for the school holidays. It is however worth noting that some schools, including academies, set their own timetables throughout the year.
