The Directorate of School Education Kashmir has proposed the winter vacation schedule for the academic year 2024-25 due to the prevailing weather conditions, including cold waves and dense fog, which have made it necessary to declare winter vacations in schools across the Kashmir Valley.
The proposed winter vacation schedule is designed to provide students with a break during the extreme weather conditions in the region. The vacations are scheduled differently based on the class levels to accommodate varying needs and ensure the safety and well-being of the students.
Proposed Winter Vacation Schedule
| Class Level | Vacation Period |
|---|---|
| Up to 2nd Primary | 9th December 2024 to 24th February 2025 |
| From 3rd Primary to 12th Standard | 16th December 2024 to 24th February 2025 |
Details of the Proposal
- Primary Classes (Up to 2nd): The winter vacation for these students is proposed to start from 9th December 2024 and end on 24th February 2025.
- Secondary and Higher Secondary Classes (3rd Primary to 12th Standard): For these students, the vacation will start a week later, on 16th December 2024, and will also end on 24th February 2025.
This schedule will allow students and teachers to rest and prepare for the upcoming academic sessions after the winter break.
Reasons Behind the Winter Vacation Schedule
The decision to implement the winter vacation comes in light of the following factors:
- Cold Wave: The Kashmir Valley experiences harsh winter conditions with significant drops in temperature, making it difficult for students to attend school.
- Dense Fog: The region faces dense fog during the winter months, which can affect visibility and transportation, making it unsafe for students to travel to school.
By declaring winter vacations, the authorities aim to ensure the safety of students and teachers during these adverse weather conditions.
Conclusion
The winter vacation proposal for the Kashmir Valley aims to prioritize the health and safety of students in light of harsh weather conditions. Schools will observe these vacation periods to ensure that students and staff can stay safe during the cold wave and dense fog prevalent in winter.
