Differed across the schools; I remember one or perhaps two courses at Easter and two, sometimes three, during school summer hols but never Whitsun (wot you youngsters call 'Spring Bank Holiday' nowadays) 'cos it was too adjacent to the summer exams period.
Also depended on how many staff you could muster; don't forget they were all volunteer part timers who had weekday jobs too.
(Best unpaid part time job you could ever have)
