School Holiday List in India for 2023-24: Each school in India operates either under the state education board or other education boards such as CBSE, ICSE, etc. While school students desperately await summer vacations and winter vacations each year, there are also several holidays which fall throughout the year. All schools in India observe the national holidays. Additionally, there are also other common holidays observed in schools as directed by the Central government. Meanwhile, there are some holidays which are state-specific based on the geographical or cultural importance of the event. For example, Kannada Rajyotsava is a holiday only in the state of Karnataka. In this article, we have curated and compiled together the holiday schedule for the academic year 2023-24 for schools across India.

Winter Vacation 2023
Monsoon is on our doorstep and within a few months, the bright sunshine of foggy winters will be coming to touch us with icy cold fingers.

However, most schools in the states of Uttar Pradesh, Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh, Bihar, Jharkhand, West Bengal, etc. start their winter vacations right before Christmas and schools reopen a while after New Year.
