What is the anticipated start date for the summer break for the students?
Revised Article:
Hey there! Here's a lowdown on the forthcoming 2024-2025 academic year in Kazakhstan. Buckle up, 'cause this year, the big finale is coming early. According to our sources, the last school day will be on May 23. That's right, no more lectures until May!
But wait, there's more. The Ministry of Education has got the last say on the matter, and they've announced that the official end of the academic year will land on May 25. So, technically, you've got an extra day of learning – although it's a Sunday, so you can count that as a mini-break. Bye-bye, school for now; say hello to summer holidays, which start on May 24 and last until September 1.
Over 3.9 million students will be bidding adieu to their desks, with more than 217,000 eleventh-graders marking a significant milestone.
The exam dates are set for the ninth and eleventh graders. For the ninth graders, it's Math on May 29, followed by a Kazakh or Russian language test on June 2, a chosen subject exam on June 5, and Kazakh and Literature tests on June 10. The eleventh-graders will tackle the History of Kazakhstan orally on May 30, Algebra and Calculus in written form on June 4, followed by language and native language tests on June 9. The rest of the exams – for a chosen subject and Kazakh or Russian Language and Literature – are slated for June 12 and June 16, respectively.
Graduation ceremonies for eleventh-graders will happen on May 23 or 24, depending on each school's decision. The Ministry of Education recommends moderation during celebrations and asks to avoid lavish events, excessive spending, and potentially dangerous activities.
The minister himself previously encouraged parents not to turn school celebrations into expensive events and not to accustom children to wastefulness.
Taking a breather after the exams, students will start their vacation approximately on September 1. After all, a new stage of learning awaits for many, and for graduates, the beginning of their adult lives.
The Ministry of Education suggests talking about summer plans in advance, securing leisure time, and ensuring safety, especially during trips. By the way, over 10,000 school camps and 512 tent camps will be open in Kazakhstan this summer. By 2025, various health, rest, and employment programs aim to cover 3.1 million children across Kazakhstan, including over 500,000 from socially vulnerable categories. Up to 10,000 children will have the opportunity to rest for free, thanks to the "Qazaqstan Haly" fund.

Just a reminder that the Ministry of Education might not be the most clear-cut communicator when it comes to educational plans. Like some folks, they're prone to making changes without warning. If you need accurate information, consult your school's official channels or local educational authorities.
