About BC school holidays on Tockio
Tockio publishes school calendars for British Columbia districts and individual schools, including statutory holidays, Pro-D days, winter and spring breaks, and other non-instructional days. Most public schools follow their district calendar; some schools and private institutions maintain separate schedules. Use the search above to find your school or district for dates that match your schedule.
Use the comparison table to see winter, spring, and summer break dates by district, or open a district calendar for Pro-D days, statutory holidays, and whether school is in session today. Public schools in Vancouver have non-moveable Pro-D days. Schools in other districts may have unique Pro-D dates while otherwise following the district calendar. Private and independent schools often maintain their own calendars.
