Each student is interested in "what date the school holidays begin". Schools in the Russian Federation operate in quarters and semesters. Based on the advice of the Ministry of Education, the government of the institutions independently chooses the date of rest for the students.
When does school summer vacation start and how long will it last?
When will the holidays start in Russia? The answer to this question is already known. Traditionally - from May 31 to August 31. The version of the schedule for quarters is classic, so it is worth navigating by it. Many schools, gymnasiums and other educational institutions are guided by this system. All clubs and sections also stop their activities for the convenience of children, their parents and teachers.
It is difficult to say whether the children are studying by the end of May. But due to the reduction, schoolchildren can be released on vacation on the 25th of the last month of spring. After that, the students will have three happy months and adults want them to spend this time with benefit.
School schedule
Based on the current regulations of the Ministry of Education, before the start of the school year, school administrations draw up a calendar schedule, which displays the dates of the beginning and end of the educational process, as well as the dates of autumn, winter, additional, spring and summer vacations. When preparing the schedule for the new year 2021-2022, the procedure will be similar. It is also planned to observe another unshakable rule: the academic year cannot begin and end on Sunday. When it comes to vacation start dates, it tends to be different, even for students at the same school.
How long is summer vacation?
When the summer holidays begin, the children and their parents go on vacation and visit their relatives. The reason for changing the vacation period may be some peculiarity of training. If it is undesirable to interrupt it, then the school management can extend the training. But one decision of the institution government is not enough. Parents and teachers' council members must give their consent.
Vacations become more and more during the school year and this is very inconvenient for parents who do not have the opportunity to spend time with their child. Therefore, the question: "We are studying tomorrow or not" - they are even more interested. Most schools operate on a quarterly basis. In it, training is distributed unevenly, which is not very convenient. The third quarter lasts 11 weeks, while the second and fourth are 7.
With such a system, children go to school without interruption for 2 and a half months, then the learning process is interrupted after 7 weeks.
The modular and trimester system works differently. For 5 weeks, schoolchildren attend classes, after which they rest for a week. On the one hand, learning in this way is comfortable for students, they do not have time to get tired. But there is a problem with academic performance. As soon as the children are ready to study, they go on vacation.
Will vacations be canceled in summer 2022?
Many parents are concerned about the question: "Will the summer holidays be shortened due to the pandemic?" The Ministry of Education does not make recommendations on the extension of the academic year. But educational institutions have the right to decide for themselves when training ends, send children on vacation or continue to teach.
Children from grades 1 to 8 go on vacation earlier. Graduates still have to attend school for the entire first month, take the OGE. But according to tradition, the last bell will sound on May 25. Each school may choose a different date for this special occasion.
If any adjustments are made to the curriculum, teachers inform parents about it. But the vacation time will not be canceled completely.
Students, together with adults, can observe the data on their own, which are periodically updated on the official resources of educational institutions.That way they will know when the school year ends.
