Where these dates come from: dates marked “school” come from The Prebendal School’s own published calendar; we re-check The Prebendal 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 half term at The Prebendal School in October 2026?
Fri 16 Oct 2026 to Sun 1 Nov 2026 inclusive. Pupils at The Prebendal School return on the next school day.
When does The Prebendal School go back to school in 2026/27?
The first day of the 2026/27 academic year is Mon 7 Sep 2026.
Are these the official The Prebendal School term dates?
Yes. The Prebendal School sets its own term dates and publishes them itself, so these come from the school's own calendar rather than from West Sussex 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 The Prebendal School. 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.
