Where these dates come from: term and holiday dates come from Tower Hamlets Council’s published calendar; we re-check Halley Primary School’s website about every 3 months for INSET days and any changes, and your calendar updates itself when we find them. Spotted a mistake? Tell us.

Questions parents ask
When is Tower Hamlets half term in October 2026?
Sat 24 Oct 2026 to Sun 1 Nov 2026 inclusive. Pupils at Halley Primary School return on the next school day.
When does Halley Primary School go back to school in 2026/27?
The first day of the 2026/27 academic year is Tue 1 Sep 2026.
Are these the official Halley Primary School term dates?
Term and holiday dates come from Tower Hamlets Council's published calendar, which Halley Primary School follows as a local-authority maintained school. INSET days are set by the school individually.
Are INSET days included?
Not yet for Halley Primary School. INSET days are set by each school individually rather than by the council, so they are not in the council calendar. Leave the INSET box ticked anyway: this is a live subscription, so once we confirm this school's INSET days they appear in your calendar automatically. You do not need to come back and re-add anything.
Will the calendar update by itself?
Yes. It is a live subscription, not a one-off copy: your calendar re-checks it automatically, so next year's dates appear without you doing anything, and any correction reaches you the same way. It is free, and you can unsubscribe in one click.
