Ok so the school I go to is very different from the school you go to and please note that my school blocked FlipAnim, so I can't use it and School starts on 8月7, school normally begins in April and ends the following March. Some classes are run year-round, but classes are usually divided into semesters, lasting through the first semester (April - September) or the second semester (October - March). Students normally enroll in April, but some universities permit students to enter at a different time, such as in October. There are usually three long vacations at the school i go to institutions of higher education during the academic year: the summer break (late July - late August), winter break (late December - early January) and spring break (late February - early April).
