This is an A4 printable year-to-view calendar for the 2023-2024 school year. I have highlighted in green each Bank Holiday and have shaded the weekends, but if you do not require this, simply delete the SAT & SUN text from the grey-shaded cells and this will remove the shading. You can log holidays, including half-terms, by entering HOL in the relevant boxes, these will then turn red.

For those who do not use, or perhaps do not like Excel, and would simply like a printable version, I have also included this is PDF format, though the conditional formatting will not work in this version.
