The Directorate of School Education, Delhi, has officially announced the academic calendar and holiday calendar including the summer break dates for schools.
The Directorate of School Education, Delhi, has officially announced the academic calendar and holiday calendar including the summer break dates for schools, providing students with a much-needed opportunity to unwind and recharge. Scheduled to commence from Saturday, May 11th, 2024, and extending until Sunday, June 30th, 2024, students can look forward to a refreshing break spanning 51 days for summer vacation.
However, amidst the student holiday period, teachers are required to report to work for two days on June 28th and 29th, 2024, to engage in essential school activities. This announcement forms a part of the official school calendar for the 2024-25 academic year, released by the Directorate of Education (DoE).
The extended break presents students with a valuable chance to relax, rejuvenate, and pursue their interests and hobbies after a rigorous academic year. Meanwhile, teachers will utilize the designated workdays to gear up for the upcoming academic year, which may involve planning lessons, conducting assessments, or attending professional development workshops.
This summer break complements other scheduled holidays within the academic calendar, including the Autumn Break from October 9th to 11th, 2024, and the Winter Vacation from January 1st to 15th, 2025. These breaks are strategically spaced to ensure a well-balanced academic schedule for both students and teachers, fostering periods of rest and productivity throughout the year.
