Regardless of the class in which class and how successfully the child is studying, all students are looking forward to school holidays and we offer you today to find out when and how children will have a rest in the 2019-2020 school year in Russia and how many vacation periods are provided for students of different classes .
School holidays - a golden time with which every adult has the most vivid childhood memories. For parents, a vacation is a period for which you can freely plan a family vacation and long trips without taking your child from the learning process. That is why, for most people, it is very important to know what dates in the coming academic year holidays fall in schools working on semester and trimester systems.
Norms and rules governing vacation time
All parents are well aware that the last word in resolving the issue of vacation always remains with the administration of the educational institution. But, the periods of study and rest should be allocated in schools, lyceums and gymnasiums, taking into account the structure of the school year specified in the main order of the Ministry of Education and Science, which is signed in August (before the school year).
When approving the periods allotted for school holidays and classes in the 2019-2020 academic year, administrations of all schools of the Russian Federation should take into account the following basic norms:
- The total number of vacation time for the school year (excluding summer holidays) cannot be less than 30 calendar days.
- The duration of the holidays may not be less than 7 days.
- Summer holidays cannot be less than 2 months.
- Any school holidays 2019-2020, as before, should begin on Monday.
- We do not allow the transfer of vacations for more than 2 weeks.
Vacation schedule for semester system
The system of semesters is a classic version of the organization of the educational process, which is used today not only in general and specialized schools, but also in many out-of-school educational institutions that children attend. The main advantage comes up from this. If the school holidays are distributed in quarters in the 2019-2020 school year, they coincide with the periods of rest of the circles and sections, music and art schools, which is convenient for children and parents.
As a rule, in this version, the school year is divided into two semesters, and each semester is divided into 2 quarters, between which there is a short rest period. Students in the quarterly system in 2019-2020 can focus on such an approximate* vacation schedule.
holidays | Dates | Number of days |
Autumn | 26.10.19 – 02.11.19 | 8 days |
Winter | 26.12.19 – 09.01.20 | 14 days |
Additional (for 1 class) | 23.02.20 – 01.03.20 | 7 days |
Spring | 23.03.20 – 29.03.20 or 30.03.20 – 05.04.20 | 7 days |
Summer | 25.05.20 – 31.08.20 | 3 months |
Autumn holidays traditionally capture the last week of October. To transfer the first holidays of 2019-2020 to a later period in some schools in Russia may be due to weather conditions in certain regions. But, for the vast majority of schools, the following dates will be relevant:
Important! Due to the fact that National Unity Day in 2019 falls on Monday, the guys will receive immediately 10 days off in a row.
This year’s favorite winter vacations will give schoolchildren 14 days of relaxation at once, filled with noisy holidays, interesting meetings and vivid impressions. The children will begin to relax already on December 26, 2019, and the new academic quarter will begin on Thursday, January 9, 2020.
Extra holidays in February 2020 will be provided only to students in 1st grade.This decision has been supported for many years by many schools in Russia, because an additional week of rest falls on a period of peak increase in the incidence of SARS. Moreover, teachers note that a short rest has a beneficial effect on the perseverance and performance of first-graders.
In the 2019-2020 academic year, additional vacations for the youngest schoolchildren in Russia fall on the last week of winter.
The spring period of rest will largely depend on the weather in the regions of the Russian Federation and the characteristics of the heating period. Schools can go on vacation from 03.23.20 or from 03.30.20.
The summer holidays of the 2019-2020 school year are the same for any schedule of the school year and they will begin for schoolchildren in Russia officially from 05.25.20 (but in fact from 05.23.20).
Vacation schedule for the trimester system
The trimester system is relatively young, but is considered more progressive and effective in the educational system. Its features include:
- short study periods;
- more frequent rest periods;
- three weighty estimates affecting the setting of the annual, which provides a more objective assessment.
For most schools in Russia that work according to the trimester system, holidays in 2019-2020 will take place according to this schedule:
holidays | Dates | Number of days |
1st autumn | 07.10.19 – 13.10.19 | 7 days |
2nd autumn | 18.11.19 – 24.11.19 | 7 days |
1st winter | 26.12.19 – 08.01.20 | 14 day |
1st winter | 24.02.20 – 01.03.20 | 7 days |
1st spring | 16.03.20 – 22.03.20 | 7 days |
2nd spring | 20.04.20 – 26.04.20 | 7 days |
Summer | 25.05.20 – 31.08.20 | 3 months |
Thus, students in the new trimester system will receive 6 (and first grades even 7) vacation periods. Moreover, the year will be divided into three periods:
- 1 trimester (from 01/09/19 to 11/15/19);
- 2 trimester (from 11/25/19 to 03/13/20);
- 3 trimester (from 03.23.20 to 05.22.20).
The first fall holidays of the 2019-2020 school year for schoolchildren of such educational institutions in Russia will begin on October 7th.
Winter, as well as additional vacation periods for the trimester system are the same as for the semester schedule. On New Year's holidays, students rest until January 8, inclusive, and the kids receive a week off at the end of February.
In the spring, the guys will also receive 2 periods of rest instead of one.
Thus, in general, students studying in the trimester system will have a little more days for rest and recovery. According to scientists who conducted the study of this system, this does not adversely affect the learning process. Although, some parents note that they have an order of magnitude more trouble asking who to leave with and what to do with their child on vacation. Also, many are not happy with the fact that often during the period of rest, children actually have to attend sections and circles, because most of the out-of-school educational centers are oriented towards the semester system.
