| Gujarat board announces vacations |
A new schedule of the summer vacation has been announced. Earlier, the directorate of primary education had postponed the dates due to General Elections.
The directorate of primary education has announced the new summer vacation schedule for all government, aided, and private primary to higher secondary level schools in Gujarat.
The summer vacation for all the schools under the Gujarat secondary and higher secondary education board (GSEB) will commence on May 9 and last for 35 days until June 12.
The new academic year for schools will now begin on June 13 which was earlier scheduled to reopen June 10.
According to the previous schedule, summer vacation was to start on May 6. However, due to the Lok Sabha elections in Gujarat on May 7 and the teaching staff’s delegated election duties, it was not possible for the department to commence the vacation from May 6.
If the vacation had started on May 6, teachers would have needed compensation for three days off. Due to these complexities, the vacation circular issued by the directorate was put on hold.
