Council approved the proposal for the revised Academic Year Structure for 2025/26, 2026/27, 2027/28.
The Senior Lecturer and Dean of Undergraduate Studies has developed a new academic year structure to allow for key needs to be addressed.
The key changes as follows:
- starting Michaelmas Term teaching one week later;
- incorporating eight days for the assessment period in Michaelmas and Hilary Terms;
- ending Michaelmas Term exams on 22nd December each year;
- and no changes to Hilary Term other than the later publication of provisional Michaelmas Term results.
- Open Day 2-25/26 will be moved to 29th November 2025.
Information on the Academic Year Structure for 2025/26 and 2026/27 can be found on the Calendar website under Academic Year Structure.
