Summer holidays 2025: North-south divide remains

The distribution of holidays will remain unchanged in 2025: in the north, schoolchildren will enjoy their summer holidays from the end of June, while in the south, schools will remain open until August – Bavaria will start the latest. For schoolchildren in regions such as the Börde in Saxony-Anhalt, this means learning during the hottest part of the summer.

Bavaria's late holidays continue to be influenced by the importance of the agricultural harvest season and the support provided by children on family-run farms.
