ORDER:
Holidays are most important part of a student's life that gives a
student break from the academic stress and gives them an opportunity to
relax, refresh and return to school for pursuing further studies with
more enthusiasm. That is the basic objective behind scheduling holidays
during the academic year. Teachers are expected to use this opportunity
for relaxing, reading, improving their knowledge/skills, overcoming
academic stress, preparing their lesson plans etc.
Further, as per Rule 9 (iv) &Form IV (4) of G.O.Ms.No.1,
Education (P.S.2) Department, Dated:01-01-1994, the school timings,
vacations and mid-term holidays shall be as prescribed by Government
from time to time. Further, Rule 11 of the said GO states that
Permission and / or Recognition, granted under these rules is liable for
withdrawal by the competent authority for violation of these rules.

2019 i.e., Andhra Pradesh School Education Regulatory and Monitoring
Commission Act, 2019 to maintain standards of Education, regulation of
Fee, Competences of Teachers, effective inspection / monitoring of
schools and implementations of provisions of RTE Act, 2009 etc.,
Further, the commission shall ensure standards of infrastructure,
admission, teaching, teacher education, student assessments,
examinations, research,and qualifications of teachers are being
maintained by the School Education Institutions in accordance with the
guidelines issued by the Central or the State Govt., from time to time.
Further any deviations and violations from the Academic Calendar and
instructions / guidelines issued by the higher authorities will be
viewed seriously by the commission.
However, it has come to the notice of undersigned that some of the
District Educational Officers are giving permission to conduct special
classes to the class Xth students etc., which is highly irregular and
inappropriate. Government will take serious view of such matter.
In the above context, all the District Educational Officers in

calendar year issued and not to deviate from the instructions /
guidelines issued by the higher authorities from time to time.
