What is School Days Count?

The number of school days in a stretch is not the number of weekdays in it. Schools close for in-service days and half terms that are not public holidays, and a closure next to a weekend is easy to miscount — which matters when a syllabus, a placement or an attendance policy counts days.

How it works

Every date in the window is enumerated, weekends are removed, and then only the holidays that fall on a remaining weekday are subtracted — a holiday on a Saturday is reported but changes nothing. The month breakdown makes the total checkable at a glance and the weeks readout turns the count into whole weeks of school. For plain “days between two dates” or public-holiday maths, the Date & Time category's date difference and business days calculators are the general-purpose tools, and this one links to them rather than duplicating them.
