During the school year in Spain, there are two breaks: Christmas and Easter. Their dates depend on the autonomous community or autonomous city in which the school is located. Below, we list the school breaks in Spain for 2025-2026 for each administrative unit.
The start and end dates of the school year may differ between elementary and secondary schools. Typically, the difference is minor, amounting to 1-2 days. If there are differences, we will provide the exact dates for each level of education.
In addition to school holidays, children are given holidays off from classes. There are 10 such days in the 2025-2026 academic year (we do not include holidays that fall during the summer break).
