Where these dates come from: dates marked “school” come from Wellington College Prep’s own published calendar; we re-check Wellington College Prep’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 half term at Wellington College Prep in October 2026?
Sat 17 Oct 2026 to Sun 1 Nov 2026 inclusive. Pupils at Wellington College Prep return on the next school day.
When does Wellington College Prep go back to school in 2026/27?
The first day of the 2026/27 academic year is Wed 2 Sep 2026.
Are these the official Wellington College Prep term dates?
Yes. Wellington College Prep sets its own term dates and publishes them itself, so these come from the school's own calendar rather than from Bracknell Forest Council — an independent school's terms often differ from the council's by a week or more. Every date is labelled with its source.
Are INSET days included?
Not yet for Wellington College Prep. We take INSET days from the school's own published calendar, and this one does not list them separately. Leave the INSET box ticked anyway: this is a live subscription, so once we confirm them they appear in your calendar automatically.
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.
