What are the secondary school holidays 2026 in Singapore?

The 2026 secondary-school calendar in Singapore has two short one-week breaks (March and September), a four-week June break, and the year-end holiday after Term 4. For most IP students, March and September suit short consolidation cycles, while June is the best full revision window.

How should IP students use the March school holidays 2026?

Use the MOE table on this page for the secondary-school planning lens, but use March school holidays 2026 Singapore first if you need the exact date block, the 23 Mar DOIL note, or the generic MOE answer.

Which school break is best for June 2026 revision?

For IP Maths and Physics, the four-week June holiday is ideal for full-topic revision and mock-paper simulation because it supports spaced review plus buffer recovery days.

Should I use this page or the full MOE school holidays 2026 page?

Use this page if you want a secondary-student planning lens. Use the full MOE page if you want the clean official answer for generic queries like school holidays 2026 Singapore or if you need the downloadable PDF/iCal view.

Is this the main page for "school holidays 2026 Singapore" or "march holidays 2026 Singapore"?

No. This page is deliberately the secondary/IP planning version. For those generic date queries, use MOE school holidays 2026 or the matching month page. ---
