- Staff Reopening: For summer and winter breaks, teaching staff report earlier than students to coordinate term curriculum and assessment logistics.
- Religious Holidays: Dates for holidays subject to lunar sightings (Bakri Eid, Eid ul-Fitr, Muharram, and Eid e-Milad) may adjust according to official state government notifications.
