The UAE Ministry of Education has confirmed that schools across the country will observe a five-day mid-term break coinciding with the Eid Al Adha holiday, running from May 25 to May 29. The break applies to students, teachers, and administrative staff, effectively giving the entire school community time off during one of the most significant Islamic holidays.
The holiday aligns with the expected Eid Al Adha period, which in 2026 is projected to fall between May 27 and May 29, alongside Arafah Day on May 26. This scheduling means the school break neatly overlaps with the public holiday period, creating an extended pause during the final academic term, while key exam dates and the end-of-year schedule will follow after students return.
