2026 School Holidays
The four scheduled breaks for primary and secondary schools. A few more days close the schools without closing the offices, and they are not on this list. Those are the school holidays that are not public holidays, and they are the ones that catch a working parent out.
2026 MOE Term Dates
Official term start and end dates from the Ministry of Education. The polytechnics and ITE keep their own academic year and are not in the MOE calendar, so a poly or ITE student needs the semester and break dates of the six institutions instead.
