Holiday rules
There are a number of days when you can get time off for your child. For example, attending a wedding, anniversary, funeral or religious festivals such as the Feast of Sacrifice and Eid al-Fitr. You must request these extra days off in advance. You can do this with the school management.
If you want extra holidays, you must ask the school management at least 8 weeks in advance. You can get a form for this from the administration, which you fill in and send to the school management. You may be eligible for special leave if your work prevents you from leaving during normal school holidays and it is your only holiday of the school year.
More than 10 vacation days? Applying via the municipality
If you want to ask for more than 10 extra vacation days, you can contact the district's attendance officer. You can get a form for this from your district. It is possible to fill out this form with the help of our administration.
Lesson-free days
At the start of the school year, parents receive an information card with an overview of the days on which no lessons are provided (such as days in the 1st and last week of classes, half days of classes in connection with the triangular discussions, study days and development days).
