When is the first day of the school year (primary school) in Spain?
I am not sure of the exact date, but I do know that it should be sometime within the 1st-15th of September.
To say nothing, especially when speaking, is half the art of diplomacy.
The academic year in Spain runs from the first week in September to the end of June, with the main holidays at Christmas, Easter and the long summer break. School hours vary depending on the particular school and are usually from 0900 until 1600 with a one hour break for lunch, although an increasing number of schools don't have a lunch break and finish classes for the day at 1400. Lessons are usually divided into teaching periods of 45 minutes. State schools and communities usually provide an after school nursery (guardería) for working mothers.
