Schools in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) have revealed their holiday plans for February, with different break lengths based on their academic schedules.
Some schools will have a full week off from Monday, February 10 to Friday, February 14, offering students and staff a nine-day break when including the weekends.
Other schools are scheduling a three-day break from Wednesday, February 12 to Friday, February 14, providing a five-day holiday with the weekend. A few schools will observe a two-day break on Thursday, February 13, and Friday, February 14, allowing for a four-day break when combined with the weekend.
Classes at these schools will resume on Monday, February 17. With Ramadan starting around March 1, schools are preparing to adjust their hours to accommodate the holy month.
They plan to shorten working hours for students and staff observing the fast. Educators have assured parents that the curriculum will be adapted to maintain a manageable workload and ensure consistent learning despite the reduced hours.
