NDRC: Encourage more places with conditions to explore spring and autumn breaks for primary and secondary schools, ensure coordination between student holidays and parents' paid annual leave

Wang Changlin, Deputy Director of the National Development and Reform Commission, stated that the public is highly concerned about spring and autumn breaks for primary and secondary schools, and more places with appropriate conditions should be encouraged to actively explore this initiative. At the same time, it is necessary to ensure proper coordination between student holidays and parents' paid annual leave. The supply of services such as family trips, educational tours, and holiday childcare should be increased to enable parents to spend more time traveling with their children.
