Schoolchildren's fall and spring breaks will be reduced in length.
Let's Chill, Homies! Here's the Deal on School Holidays for the 2021-2022 Academic Year
The Ministry of Education and Science in Kazakhstan has spilled the beans on school vacation days for the upcoming academic year, according to Total.kz. Here's the lowdown:
- The academic year starts on September 1, 2021, and lasts for 33 weeks for first graders and 34 weeks for grades 2-11. Lessons scheduled on holidays will be moved, and the curriculum content will be covered during the review time.
- Fall break is a mere 7 days off (October 25-31, 2021) for grades 1-11. Last year they took a 10-day vacation. Bittersweet, ain't it?
- Winter break kicks in on December 31, 2021, and lasts 11 days until January 10, 2022. Time to get comfy under that holiday blanket!
- Spring break is also 11 days long and runs from March 21-31, 2022, for grades 1-11. Guess what? It was longer last year (12 days).
- First graders get 7 extra days off in February (February 7-13, 2022). Lucky them!
- Summer vacay commences on May 26 and lasts until September 1, 2022. Plenty of time to turn those tan lines green!
The order is open for public discussion until June 28. So, if you've got some thoughts, better put 'em out there! Get those keyboards clicking!
Now, since we're talking education, ya might wonder why we ain't got any detailed info on the holiday schedule from last year or previous years. Well, that's because the Ministry of Education and Science in Kazakhstan typically sets the annual academic calendar, which includes winter break, spring break, and summer holidays. But, for the juicy details on the specific 2021-2022 holiday schedule, just holler at your local education authorities or hit up their official website, fam. You know, for the real scoop! Peace out! ✌️️🌱
- The Ministry of Education and Science in Kazakhstan has released new schedules for the 2021-2022 school year, integrating education-and-self-development activities within the curriculum.
- The 2022 summer holiday begins on May 26 and lasts until September 1, 2022, providing an extended period for grades-and-self-development and leisure activities.
- For grades 1-11, spring break in 2022 is 11 days long, with classes resuming on March 31, 2022—the duration was slightly shorter compared to the previous year.
- In a slightly surprising move, first graders will enjoy an additional 7 days off in February 2022 (February 7-13), which is not part of the regular education-and-self-development schedule for other grades.
