Dates come from the official school-calendar publications for France, collected by the open-data OpenHolidays project. Last checked on 2026-08-27. They cover public schools; an individual school can add in-service days of its own, so treat this as the frame and the school's own calendar as final.

How France sets school holidays

France sets dates nationally but in three rotating zones (A, B and C), so Lyon, Paris and Toulouse take their winter and spring breaks in different weeks. The tables below list the dates per région, as the source records them.
Christmas and the summer are common to all zones; it is the February and April breaks that rotate. For summer the source records the end of lessons in early July rather than a dated range — classes resume at the rentrée on 1 September.
Corsica and the overseas territories publish their own calendars, which can differ from the mainland zones.
