I had a think about this. Definitely next year. Definitely when the weather gets better so April onwards but probably won’t to leave it as late June/July. Probably also won’t do anything during public examinations (so that rules out 15th May to June 24th but allows the halfterm with the second May Bank Holiday which could be moved.) In addition there is Easter weekend is 16/17th April - fixed and May 1st is the early Bank Holiday which could be moved. So my bet is either 1) last Saturday of April with a Friday Bank Holiday and keep the Monday Holiday or no holiday Friday. Or 2) Similar to the Jubilee this year have it during May half-term moving the Monday Bank Holiday as needed - 4 day weekend? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
