Schools can decide length of CNY break

Schools can decide length of CNY break


INDEPENDENT Chinese schools are allowed to decide on the number of days to take off for Chinese New Year without any interference from Dong Zong.

Sin Chew Daily quoted Dong Zong (United Chinese School Committees Association of Malaysia) president Dr Yap Sin Tian as saying that the group did not give any advice on the number of school holidays during the festive season.

Dr Yap made the comment in reference to complaints from certain quarters that Tsun Jin High School in Kuala Lumpur would reopen on the sixth day of Chinese New Year.

This year, most government schools will reopen on the
eighth day of Chinese New Year.

School principal Cheng Ah Swee said the school management made the decision after considering the progress of study.

“We have about 2,800 students. In the past, some parents felt that the Chinese New Year holiday was too long. It is difficult for the school to please every parent,” he said.
