The Education Ministry is to cut the primary school year by a week.

The ministry has confirmed a two-week break between terms one and two effective this year would continue in future years.

Easter would often occur during that break, but would not next year, ministry spokesman Vince Cholewa said. Normal statutory holidays will apply for Easter.
