when does the school year start in sweden
Education in Sweden Education in Sweden is mandatory for all children between age 7 and age 16.[2] The school year in Sweden runs from mid/late August to early/mid June. The Christmas holiday from mid December to early January divides the Swedish school year into two terms. Homeschooling is closely supervised by the government and very limited.[3]
First day of school In the United States, educational policy is determined primarily at the state level and at the level of individual school districts. Therefore, there is no one particular day on which all schools start. Most schools start usually the day after Labor Day in September, while some can start in early August. The first day of school for many school districts is on the Wednesday or Thursday after Labor Day (first Monday in September). On that day, public transportation services increase and start the rush hour earlier. In some other school districts, school begins in August. For example, in San Diego Unified School District, San Diego, California, the first school student's day of 2017-18 school year was set to August 28.[2]
