Hyderabad: Schools in Hyderabad reopened on Monday, June 15, as summer holidays came to an end.
As of this morning, many parents were seen dropping their children off at schools, and traffic was also witnessed near school premises.
Although the educational institutions were scheduled to reopen on Friday, June 12, the Telangana School Education Department revised the reopening date for schools for the academic year 2026–27.
The decision was taken after the government received several representations from different stakeholders requesting a change in the reopening date.
Working day announced to compensate for academic time
To make up for the academic time lost due to the postponement, the School Education Department has declared July 11, which falls on the second Saturday, as a regular working day instead of a holiday for all government and private schools in Hyderabad and other districts of Telangana.
The department said this step is necessary to ensure that the prescribed instructional days under the Academic Calendar 2026–27 are maintained.
