A change to the structure of the school year in French-speaking schools has been a topic of discussion in Belgium for over 30 years. Now, however, a reform of the annual schedule will begin in earnest after the main points were agreed upon by politicians at the end of last week.
Caroline Désir, the Francophone education minister, and the government of the Wallonia-Brussels Federation, has signed off on the changes which can now be applied as early as the 2022-2023 school year.
From the beginning of 2022, the summer holidays from kindergarten to the end of secondary school in the French-speaking system will be shortened as the start of the school year will take place on 29 August 2022. The Carnival and All Saints Day half-term holidays will be two weeks instead of one.
