East Ayrshire School Holidays 2024 and 2025
This page contains the 2024 and 2025 school holidays as published by the East Ayrshire Council in Scotland to help you start planning.
Generally, the holiday dates announced at a council level don’t change very often. However, we encourage you to check back regularly for any amendments that may occur, and to consult the East Ayrshire Council website for their 2023-2024 approved calendar and 2024-2025 approved calendar. You may also wish to visit the East Ayrshire Council homepage to check for any urgent or last-minute updates that may not have been incorporated into the official calendars.
Also note that dates for individual schools may vary due to teacher training days and other school-specific considerations.
