All educational institutions across Bangladesh will remain closed for five consecutive days from February 11 to 15, 2026. According to the Ministry of Education’s published holiday list, classes will be suspended nationwide during this period. The closure includes holidays on February 11 and 12 for the 13th National Parliamentary Election, followed by the regular weekend on February 13 and 14, and finally February 15 for the observance of Shree Shree Shivratri Brata.

The ministry’s analysis shows that this will be the first major extended holiday of the year and the fifth listed holiday so far. In addition to the education sector, February 11 has been declared a public holiday for the election, while February 10 will be a general holiday for industrial workers. Election day, February 12, had already been announced as a public holiday.

This sequence of holidays marks a significant break for students and teachers early in the academic year, coinciding with national election activities and a religious observance.
