Dubai private schools must not break up for summer holiday before June 28, authorities say – The National

Dubai's education authority has encouraged parents to check their school's published term dates to find out when their children will break for the summer holiday.

As the Islamic calendar moves forward again this year, the end of term will almost coincide with Eid Al Adha, which is expected to begin on Wednesday, June 28.

After some confusion over when schools holidays would start, the Knowledge and Human Development Authority (KHDA) has clarified that schools are under no obligation to end the term during the Eid Al Adha break.
