Ziua Mondială a Educației: Ce drepturi au profesorii și elevii și cum se recuperează orele

On October 5, 2026, Romanian students and teachers will not attend classes due to the International Day of Education, which is officially recognized in the school calendar. This day off creates a long weekend, as it falls on a Monday, following the weekend of October 3-4. The Ministry of Education's order specifies that no classes will be held on this date, and there is no need to make up for missed lessons. The school year 2026-2027 consists of 36 weeks of classes, with the calendar accounting for non-teaching days. The significance of this day highlights the importance of education and teachers' roles, as recognized by UNESCO and the International Labour Organization. The next break for students will be the autumn vacation from October 24 to November 1, 2026.
