Schools across the UAE are issuing early reminders for winter break 2025–26 to help families plan holidays without disrupting studies. The Ministry of Education has approved the school calendar, with the first term ending in a four-week break from December 8, 2025, to January 4, 2026. Schools stress that holidays should align with official dates, though senior grades may have extra sessions for exam preparation. Principals highlight the importance of communication in avoiding confusion and ensuring students remain focused. Parents welcome the advance notice, as it allows them to book travel early, save costs, and enjoy stress-free family time.
