About Skellefteå
Skellefteå is in Västerbotten on the Skellefte river, and the Bonnstan church town in the centre has more than a hundred timbered church cottages. The Sara Cultural Centre, with a library and theatre, is one of the tallest timber buildings in the world. The winter sports break falls in March, and the municipality publishes breaks and term dates for compulsory schools on its own page.
How we collect and check the dates
Where do the dates come from?
All dates come from each municipality's own page about school term dates for compulsory school. We do not copy other sites' lists or reuse earlier years. Below the table there is a link to the source, so you can see where the date is written.
How are the dates checked?
When a break is added, the line of text on the municipality's page that the date is based on is saved. A date is only published if that line appears word for word on the municipality's page, under the right term and year. If the municipality only gives a week number, such as week 44, we convert it to Monday–Friday of that week. If there is no separate Christmas break listed, it is worked out from the last day of the autumn term and the first day of the spring term. Such dates are marked as calculated.
How often is the page updated?
An automatic check goes through the municipalities' pages every ten days and looks for breaks that are still missing. Breaks that are already over are not looked for. Dates already on the page are not overwritten automatically. If a municipality changes a break afterwards, we correct it by hand.
When do municipalities publish new term dates?
Most municipalities decide their term dates one to two years ahead, often in spring. So the next school year may be missing for a while for some municipalities. If no date is shown for a break, the municipality has not published it yet, or we have not been able to confirm it.
Why do municipalities have different breaks?
Each municipality decides its own breaks. The sports break is spread between week 7 and week 10 depending on where in Sweden you live, partly so the ski resorts are not full the same week. The autumn break is almost always week 44, and the Easter break is around Easter or the week after.
How many school days are in a school year?
According to the Swedish School Ordinance, the school year has at least 178 school days and 12 days off. It starts in August and ends in June. Days off that are not part of the main breaks are often single days, for example around Ascension Day.
Do the dates apply to independent schools and upper secondary?
The dates apply to the municipality's compulsory schools. Independent schools set their own term dates and may have other breaks. Upper secondary schools often follow the same breaks, but not always. Study days, when pupils are off but teachers work, are set by each school and are not listed here.
