I am from the UK and have been working here since January 2010. My contract will finish in February 2011. If I go travelling until 6 April will I be exemot from UK income tax. Thanks.
You'll be treated as non-resident from the day after you leave the UK if you can show:
you left the UK to go abroad permanently or your absence and full-time work abroad lasts at least the whole tax year your visits to the UK are less than 183 days in a tax year and average less than 91 days a tax year over a maximum of four consecutive years
The same applies to your spouse, civil partner or partner.
From this it can be deduced you have to be out of the UK for only one tax year to not be liable for tax. I have included the HMRC link below.
You pay tax when you are ordinarily resisent in the UK. The rule is that you have to be out of the UK for two consecutive tax year to claim no UK residence. It would appear to me that there is a slight chance you get taxed. As with NIC, I am not sure. WHy dont you go on Inland Revenue website and find out. The website is quite helpful. You can call me on 66009542 to discuss any tax planning, if there is any.
UK Income tax law states that if you have been out of the UK for more than one full financial year (1st April - 31st March) then you do not have to pay tax on that income. There are several points to note on that, i.e. ensuring that you can PROVE that you were out of the country, and keep an eye on how long are you back for holidays too. When you are travelling be sure to keep some sort of record/proof of that in case tax man comes knocking. Full details on the HMRC website.

Just a slight correction - 6th April - 5th April rather than March - April. Fully up to date info on their website.
