yeh ramadan moves 10 days each year so its scheduled to start 1st august, and is usually 30 days, so yes then there will be eid so the usual dates that brit schools go back is around 4/5th sept

The ministry usually decides on the dates for the national schools at the end of Feb and the other schools take this into account when sorting out their calendars. Looking at the dates, Ramadan will end on 30th/31st August this year so I suspect 4th/5th September will be about right.

I would imagine that it would be around 4th September as i think Ramadan and therefore Eid will be earlier this year, but dont hold me to that. :)
