2025-2026 and 2026-2027 School Calendars
Professional Learning Days 2025-2027
The school calendar below outlines the number of school days and instructional days each month. It identifies days there are no student classes due to parent-teacher interviews, professional learning days, administrative days and holidays. For this calendar, a “school day” is a day when teachers are required to be on duty, in the classroom or at workshops, conventions or any other activities authorized by the education authority. An “instructional day” is a day where classes are held and students are in attendance at school.
The PEI Department of Education and Early Years offers a wide range of professional learning opportunities this school year to support educators in delivering high-quality education. These sessions, guest organizations, speakers and in-house experts focus on Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI), Social Emotional Learning (SEL), Artificial Intelligence, curriculum, instruction and assessment. They will be delivered in person, virtually, and at schools and various locations across the Island. By partnering with local and national organizations, the department ensures that teachers can access the latest research and best practices, helping them stay ahead in an ever-evolving educational environment. Our professional learning initiatives reflect the department’s commitment to continuous improvement and student success.
