How we count §
A school day is a Monday–Friday inside the course modules that falls in no break and on no day off. Counting is exclusive: “after today” — today never counts, even when it is a course day. “Școala altfel” and “Săptămâna verde” are activity days, so they do count.
Days off subtracted from the count
- 5 Oct 2026 (Monday) — Education Day, off under the sector contract
- 30 Nov 2026 (Monday) — St. Andrew, public holiday
- 1 Dec 2026 (Tuesday) — National Day, public holiday
- 1 Jun 2027 (Tuesday) — Children's Day, public holiday
- 21 Jun 2027 (Monday) — Whit Monday, public holiday; only matters for the tech path, other tracks end earlier
These cost nothing because they fall on weekends or inside a break: 24 January (Sunday), 1 May (Saturday), Good Friday and Easter (inside the spring break), 5 June (Saturday).
What we do not know yet
Each county inspectorate sets the mobile week. We have confirmed only Bucharest (22–28 February) and Cluj (15–21 February); for other counties the page starts with a provisional week you can change. Whichever option you pick, the total to the summer break stays the same — only the January–February answer differs.
Usual questions §
What counts as a school day?
A weekday (Monday–Friday) in a course module, excluding breaks and days off. Weekends never count.
Why must I pick a county?
The February–March 2027 mobile week differs by county, by school inspectorate decision. All other breaks are the same everywhere.
What if I do not know my county week?
Pick a provisional week and carry on. The total to the summer break never changes either way — the choice only matters for the January–February answer.
Why does grade XII finish earlier?
It has 34 course weeks and ends on 4 June 2027, ahead of the baccalaureate. Grade VIII has 35 weeks and ends on 11 June, ahead of the national evaluation. The tech path has 37 and finishes last, on 25 June.
Do “Școala altfel” and “Săptămâna verde” count?
Yes. They are school activity days, so we count them as school days.
Why is the total not 36 × 5?
Breaks and days off are subtracted from the weekdays. That leaves 171 course days for 36-week classes, 166 for grade VIII, 161 for grade XII and 175 for the tech path.
Where we got it §
The year structure comes from Order 3194/2026 on the 2026–2027 school year structure. The confirmed mobile weeks and the days off come from inspectorate decisions, as reported by Edupedu. The dates here follow the editions read on 18 September 2026.

- Edupedu: days off during courses (in Romanian) — 5 October, 30 November, 1 December, 1 and 21 June.
- Edupedu: the Bucharest mobile week (in Romanian) — 22–28 February 2027, ISMB decision.
