I cannot provide specific dates for Spanish school holidays for the 2024-2025 school year. School holiday dates in Spain vary by region (autonomous community). Each region sets its own calendar, resulting in differing start and end dates for holidays.
To find the precise school holiday dates for a specific region in Spain for the 2024-2025 academic year, I recommend the following:
-
Check the regional education ministry website: Each autonomous community in Spain has its own education ministry or equivalent department. Their websites are the most reliable source for official school calendar information. Search online using the name of the specific region (e.g., "Andalusian education ministry website," "Madrid education calendar") plus the year (2024-2025).
-
Contact the school directly: If you know the specific school your child attends or are interested in, contacting the school administration is another reliable way to obtain the accurate holiday schedule.
-
Look for local news and education publications: Local news sources and publications focused on education often publish school holiday calendars closer to the start of the academic year.
