School Holidays For Dussehra 2025: Schools To Be Closed For 13 Days And Junior Colleges For 8 Days

School Holidays For Dussehra 2025: It’s festive season time in Telangana, and students are gearing up for their much-awaited Dussehra holidays! The state government has officially announced the holiday schedule for 2025, giving both school and junior college students a chance to relax, celebrate, and spend time with their families.

School Holidays Get 13 Days of Festive Fun

For school students, the break is extra special this year—a 13-day holiday starting from September 21 to October 3, 2025. Classes will resume on October 4, just in time to prepare for the upcoming Summative Assessment-1 (SA-1) exams later in October.

Holidays For Junior Colleges Enjoy an 8-Day Break

Junior college students, on the other hand, will have a shorter 8-day holiday, beginning September 28 to October 5, 2025, with classes starting again on October 6. Their festive break is slightly trimmed down to accommodate the upcoming half-yearly exams in November.

Celebration Meets Preparation

While the holidays bring festive cheer, schools are required to wrap up Formative Assessment-2 (FA-2) exams before September 21. This way, students can enjoy the holidays stress-free and return refreshed for their next round of assessments.

A Perfect Balance

The Telangana government’s holiday calendar ensures that students don’t miss out on the joy of Dussehra while keeping academic schedules on track. With family gatherings, festive events, and exam prep all lined up, this year’s break promises to be a mix of celebration and responsibility.
