School Holidays

Ministry of Education (MOE) school holidays follow a separate academic calendar and do not always align with public holidays. Singapore's school year runs across four terms, with scheduled breaks in March, June, September and the year-end (November–December). For exact term dates, refer to the MOE school calendar for the current year.
