As a rule, in winter, schoolchildren are waiting for the longest holidays, between the second and third quarters, traditionally they last fourteen days. For students, they are the only ones at all, between the first and second semester, except for summer holidays, a month from which often has to be allocated for practice. Most often, in different schools, winter holidays begin at different times, with a slight difference of a couple of days, and every year the start date of the holiday shifts. For students, rest will begin only after passing the session, the beginning of which also often does not coincide in different institutes. When does the winter holidays begin for schoolchildren and students in the 2015-2016 academic year?
Traditionally, at the end of the second academic quarter, students will have a two-week vacation. This year, the last school day of 2015 will be Friday, December 26 or Saturday, December 27, depending on whether a five-day or six-day week is introduced in a particular school. The winter holidays of the 2015-2016 school year for schoolchildren will officially begin on Monday, December 29, and will last fourteen days - until January 12, also Monday. For first grade students, some schools often give an extra week of rest in early or mid-February. This is done so that young students can relax in the middle of the third quarter - the longest, since this is their first school year and they are not yet used to the stress. 
It is worth remembering that the winter holidays at school can begin at different times - it all depends on the management of the educational institution, in addition, in private, non-state schools, the curriculum and vacation schedule can be radically different from the schedule of public schools.
For students of higher educational institutions, winter holidays are of great importance - for the entire academic year this is the only respite for them. The moment when the winter holidays begin for students is determined individually by the leadership of a particular educational institution. In each university and institute, winter holidays begin at different times. As a rule, at the end of December, students begin a session, the duration of which also depends on the leadership of the university. Most often, the session lasts two to three weeks - until about mid-January. If a student does not have to retake exams and pay off debts, then he still has one and a half to two weeks left for a good rest. 
In any case, it is worth remembering that the schedule of sessions and winter holidays at the university and institute may vary slightly each academic year, while the terms will differ for different educational institutions. In the first two weeks of January, there are sessions in almost all higher educational institutions - then a week for retakes, and only then - a long-awaited rest. You can find out exactly when the winter holidays for students in 2016 will begin only in the dean's office of the educational institution.

Holidays for students in the 2017 2018 academic year
During the 2017-2018 academic year, there will be fewer vacations at institutes, universities and other higher educational institutions, as students rest only in winter and summer. Each university appoints the exact vacation schedule for students depending on the dates of the sessions. Winter holidays for students begin at the end of January and end in mid-February. In the summer, student vacation dates also depend on the session and practice, which is often scheduled for June, which means that you can go on vacation only in July. Also, the practice can be postponed to August, and the holidays will begin as early as mid-June. It all depends on the particular university, therefore, in order to carefully plan your vacation, you need to clarify the data in the administration of the university. The only thing that can be said for sure is that the holidays should not be less than 6 weeks.
When the autumn, winter, spring and summer holidays at school begin in the 2018/2019 academic year is a question that interests many parents due to the fact that in Russia there are no fixed dates and dates for the start and end of vacations.
Not all Russian schools work according to the traditional quarter system, some institutions study in modules, trimesters, and even bimestres. Therefore, the holidays for each such school begin at different times and also last in different ways.
In addition, holidays shift from year to year and the Ministry of Education and Science of the Russian Federation draws up a recommended vacation schedule for each academic year, and regional officials and school administrations edit it every year in accordance with the situation on the ground.
Ultimately, the schedule with the terms of quarters, modules or trimesters is approved by the school itself. This decision is made at a meeting of the governing council, which includes not only teachers and administration, but also representatives of parents and the students themselves.
In our material, we provide the recommended vacation schedule for different education systems for the 2018/2019 academic year, published by the Ministry of Education (formerly the Ministry of Education and Science). But we emphasize once again that a particular school can adjust this schedule to suit its needs.
Therefore, it is better to look for the final schedule of holidays and holidays adopted by the school on its official website - it must be published no later than September.
How and how much students will study in the 2018/2019 academic year
The educational process in the 2018-2019 academic year will stretch for 38 calendar weeks, but not all of them will be devoted to study. Some of them will traditionally take vacation segments.
quarters
Those students who are according to the standard scheme, will study for 4 quarters (2 semesters) and will have autumn, winter and spring holidays:
- First quarter. It starts on September 2 and ends on October 25 (8 weeks).
- The second quarter will again call schoolchildren to their desks on November 5 and will continue almost until the New Year holidays - until December 26 (8 weeks).
- The third quarter is the longest. It will start on January 9 and end on March 22 (11 weeks).
- The fourth quarter will start on April 1 and end with the last bell, which will ring in all classical schools on May 27. In total, this quarter will take 8 weeks ...
trimesters
The entire period of study will be divided into 6 trimesters, between which at least 7 days will be allocated for children to relax. On average, one trimester is 5 or 6 weeks. The educational process will be structured as follows:
- First trimester. Students and teachers start work from September 2 and do not stop classes for 5 weeks. Since not a single holiday falls at this stage, children will have to study without additional rest. The last school day of this trimester will be Friday, October 4, and from the 6th, the first holidays will begin, which will end on October 13 on Sunday.
- Second trimester. The second stage will begin almost from the middle of October, namely from the 14th (Monday). Its duration will be the same as the first one. But during this period, a holiday will be celebrated - National Unity Day (November 4). Thus, this will give schoolchildren a long weekend from November 2 to 4. This trimester will end on November 17th.
- Third trimester. A new segment of study starts on November 25 and will take 5 weeks. This period will be the finish line before the New Year holidays and extended holidays, during which the whole country rests. The last day of school will be December 27th.
- Fourth trimester. The next segment of training will begin on Wednesday, January 9, 2019 and will last almost 6 weeks, until February 15.
- Fifth trimester. From February 25 to April 5, the educational process will again take place actively. During it, schoolchildren will celebrate Women's Day, resting for 3 days off.
- Sixth trimester. The final trimester will be long, but it has a record number of holidays. Therefore, starting on April 15, it will last until May 24 and will take 6 weeks. During the May holidays, Wednesday 1 May will be a day off, as well as Thursday and Friday 9 and 10 May. The school year 2018-2019 will end with the last call, and schoolchildren will rest all summer.
The total number of rest days is the same for all systems. This is 30 days during the school year (for first graders - 35 days) and three months in the summer.

Dates, start and end dates of school holidays on Thursdays
Traditionally, schoolchildren who study in quarters rest for 7 days in autumn and spring, and two weeks in winter. In addition, taking into account the New Year and autumn holidays, the school administration may add two more additional days to the autumn or winter holidays.
- Autumn vacation- from October 29 to November 4, 2018
- Winter holiday- from December 26, 2018 to January 8, 2019
- Spring break- from 25 to 31 March 2019.
- Summer vacation The holidays will last 92 days from June 1 to August 31, 2019. For students who have completed grade 9 - 80 days from June 13 to August 31, 2019 inclusive.
There are additional holidays for first-graders- they will be held from February 25 to March 3. This is necessary in order to dose the load and not to overwhelm the baby with studies from head to toe. Such additional vacations will help those who are lagging behind catch up with the rest, and those who are already doing well with their studies will simply take a breath.
Terms, start and end dates of school holidays by semesters or modules
The vacation schedule for those who study in semesters or modules is almost the same - but each school can make its own adjustments to it.
Holidays with a modular system are calculated according to the following scheme: training - 5-6 weeks, then rest - 7 days. Children take the following breaks in their studies.
The schedule of modular or semester holidays will be something like this:
- Autumn vacation will be held twice - from 8 to 14 October and from 19 to 25 November 2018.
- Winter holiday will also be held twice - from December 29, 2018 to January 8, 2019, and also from February 18 to 24, 2019.
- Spring break one - from 8 to 14 April.
- Summer vacation The holidays will last 92 days from June 1 to August 31, 2019.
Where to find information about holidays
The vacation schedule in schools in various Russian regions during the academic period may undergo minor changes related to the postponement of holidays and the decisions of the local school administration. Only in Moscow, the Department of Education establishes a unified study schedule for students in the traditional and modular system.
The exact calendar of school holidays for the 2018-2019 academic year can be found in the most appropriate way:
- Go to the official information portal of the educational institution, where there is a calendar schedule for the academic year.
- The child's electronic diary should also contain information about rest periods in the information section for parents or in the news and announcements section.
- The class teacher is obliged to provide such information to parents, since the curriculum is drawn up in the summer and the vacation schedule is approved in advance.
- Information about rest periods during the school year can be obtained from the secretary by calling the reception of the educational institution.
Having all the necessary information, parents can plan the upcoming joint vacation with their child in advance.
Holidays for students of universities, institutes and colleges in 2018/2019: schedule
Student vacations are much less than those of schoolchildren. Usually there are only two of them: winter and summer. They depend on the end of the session and in each higher education institution at different times.
Therefore, it is difficult to present a graph here. But as practice shows, in winter they begin in January, and in summer at the end of June or beginning of July.
Most importantly, the holidays should last at least 6 weeks.
All start and end dates for the holidays for 2018-2019 are approximate and will definitely be further adjusted. They may also differ in different schools, cities, regions.
It's no secret that the rest schedule throughout the year is no less important than the work schedule. Not only an office employee, but also any schoolchild and student will agree with this. Moreover, the latter are waiting for vacations much more than any adult - vacations. Therefore, the rest time calendar begins to concern students and schoolchildren at the very beginning of the school year and even earlier: vacations, internships abroad or work can and should be planned in advance.
Clear vacation schedules usually become known at the beginning of the school year. And they are independently determined by the administrations of educational institutions. However, the general patterns and practice of making such decisions are known to everyone. Therefore, the vacation periods for both schoolchildren and students in the 2016-2017 academic year, although with some relativity, can still be predicted. But remember: the schedule is still subject to change!
Educational institutions will form the final vacation schedule in September
School holidays in 2016-2017
Rest time for school students depends on what parts the academic year is divided into in this institution. As you know, two options are possible: traditional quarters and less familiar, but firmly established in practice, trimesters. In schools that divide the school year into quarters, rest periods are:
- per week in late October and early November, for a total of two weeks;
- the last days of December and the first 10 days of January, for a total of two weeks;
- 1 week at the end of March;
- 3 months in summer.
In addition, first-graders and children who study in correctional classes rest longer than others. In winter they get an extra week of vacation.
School holidays depend on how the school year is divided In schools that divide the academic year into trimesters, the schedule is much simpler - after every five working weeks, a week of rest is arranged. However, there is an exception to this rule. In 2016-2017 New Year holidays for all students will be held at the same time. The vacation schedule may still be adjusted, but the preliminary dates are as follows:
- In autumn, schoolchildren go on vacation on October 29, and return to their desks on November 7;
- Winter holidays begin on December 24, the first school day of the new term is January 10;
- Additional winter rest for first-graders and students of correctional classes will begin on February 18, and they will return to school on February 27;
- Spring break will begin on March 25, and you will need to sit down at your desks on April 3;
- Children will go to the long-awaited summer vacation at the end of May (the date depends on the specific school, usually it happens on May 24-25 or 30), and they will enter the new school year, as usual, on September 1.
Holidays for students in 2016-2017
School years, and with them the usual four vacation periods in the school year, are left behind. Students are content with only two - winter and summer. And even those are often small, since the session can “eat up” the lion's share of student leave. It is impossible to name specific dates for student vacations - such decisions are made by the university itself, based on specific curricula for 2016-2017.
Student holidays are closely related to the curriculum and session schedule If we talk about the winter period of rest, then it usually begins at the end of January. The date depends on the exam schedule. Students return to the classroom around the second week of February. If a student passes the session successfully and does not pull up his "tails", he can rest for almost the whole of January! However, it is possible that the university decides to send students on vacation before the New Year and Christmas holidays. Then the session begins immediately after them, and there is no break between it and the new semester.
In the summer, history repeats itself. With a successful or early delivery of the session, you can rest for three months, but in practice this happens very rarely. Classes, sessions and defense of term papers and theses are stretched to June. After that, practice is possible, although it may be scheduled for August. When exactly to release students, the university decides at the beginning of each academic year. So those who are planning a trip for vacation, work, internship or study for the summer or winter can already in September ask a question about the schedule of the administration of the educational institution.
Winter holidays for students.
Each university has the right to set its own vacation dates. Usually students have Winter holidays in the second half of January, immediately after passing tests and exams. Those. For most universities, immediately after the New Year holidays, the winter session begins, the dates of which can vary significantly for different universities. And after the session, vacations begin, which last about a week (for different universities in different ways).
By and large, rest (holidays), or rather its duration, for students completely depends only on themselves.
Vacations for students always and, in particular, in the winter of 2016, will begin immediately after the successful completion of the session (all tests and exams). This usually happens with successful students before January 20-22. Accordingly, after this date, students can be free and devoted to their rest.
This is very individual for each university.
After the New Year, the session begins, which usually lasts the entire month of January.
The duration of the winter holidays is two weeks.
Accordingly, whoever left to rest earlier will start classes earlier in the second semester. Approximately by February 10, students from various universities will begin their studies.
First you need to pass the session - and only then think about the winter holidays
Of course, it all depends on the institution - the university sets the vacation time
Some give more rest, others less - as the university wants, it will be so.
First, of course, there is the New Year holidays, then the session and then the official holidays
In 2016, students usually start from the end of January, it depends on whether the student successfully passed the exam. Vacations last until the seventh of February inclusive. On the eighth of February, students are already going to study.
Only twice a year students have the opportunity to take a break (officially) from their studies after the sessions. They will have long holidays after the summer session, and short ones in winter. They will last only 14 days from January 25 to February 8. Students still had breaks between exams and New Year holidays.
Each institute has an individual approach to the issue of holidays, depending on the timing of the session. Usually, it is held in January after the New Year holidays and lasts until the number 25-26. Then the holidays come until the beginning of February.
Those who passed the session ahead of schedule in December will walk all January.
In each higher educational institution, vacation periods are set by its management. You should also take into account the fact that exams can be taken ahead of schedule - in this matter, teachers are quite willing to meet students halfway. The session usually starts in early January (we once had an exam on January 2nd), and ends towards the end of the month, on the 24th-25th, after which a two-week vacation begins.
Student holidays are different from school holidays. At least in their multiplicity - they are only twice a year. And also by the fact that each higher educational institution has its own schedules for passing tests and sessions. Therefore, there are some nuances. So we can speak about fixed dates and terms of winter student holidays purely conditionally.
But it is absolutely certain that student holidays in winter are divided into two parts. The first part will coincide completely with the winter holidays in the country. This means that in 2016, students will have a rest from the first to the tenth of January - this is ten days.
Then they will return to their universities again and will take the winter session until about January 22nd.
Thus, the winter holidays will be 24 days in 2016.
Students do not have vacations at the same time as at schools, and for frequent student vacation schedules, it depends on the particular university.
Even in the same university, different groups may have different vacation times.
As for the winter holidays, the only thing that unites all universities is the time of the New Year holidays, which take place from January 1 to 10.
The next holidays for students should be at the end of January, at the beginning of February, lasting 14 days.
The exact date of the beginning of the holidays must be found out in a particular university.
