Default School Holidays

Should they be shorter/longer more evenly spaced out. This Easter one has been especially awkward with them having the weekend and Bank Holidays off, then back to school, then off again at the end of next week.

My son is grown up, but I think they are too long, the summer ones get boring for the kids and expensive for the parents.

I think they should be shorter and more often. The kids forget things over the long summer months and its difficult keeping them entertained.

As someone who works to term times longer holidays and more of them would be very nice
