Vacation Breaks and Regional Holiday
Kendriya Vidyalayas observe three main vacation breaks during the academic year: summer vacation, autumn break, and winter break. In plain regions, summer vacation typically lasts 40 days across May and June, autumn break runs for 10 days during Dussehra, and winter break spans 10 to 15 days in late December.
Schools in cold climate zones, including Leh, Ladakh, and hill stations, follow adjusted winter-closing timetables with extended winter breaks. Islamic festival dates are subject to local moon sightings. Parents and students can compare these school closures with the Central Government Holiday List 2027 or check regional circulars on kvsangathan.nic.in.
