Hello Louise,

At De Montfort University, our on-line calendar simply refers to each
break as a vacation divided by spring, summer and autumn terms - no
reference to religious names or dates.  See link:

Best wishes

Dear All

 

I have received a request to consider whether an alternative description
should be found for the  break we have in Semester 2 that we refer to as
"Easter Holidays".  

 

I would be particularly interested in hearing from University's that
have roots in a particular faith.

 

Regards

Louise
