Dates come from the official school-calendar publications for the Netherlands, 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 the Netherlands sets school holidays

The Netherlands schedules school breaks in three zones — North, Middle and South — whose summer breaks are staggered by law; the ministry fixes summer dates centrally and advises the rest. The tables below are per province, each following its zone.
Autumn and spring breaks are advisory, so individual schools can shift them by a week — the dates below are what most follow.
