Kapanlagi.com - The Indonesian government has just issued a Joint Circular (SEB) from three ministers establishing the schedule for learning and school holidays during Ramadan 2025. However, there is something different about the terms we usually hear. Now, the government has replaced the term "school holiday" with "independent learning". This step is taken to provide flexibility for students to continue their learning activities, both at home and in their surroundings.
In the circular, there are two main schemes proposed: independent learning at the beginning of Ramadan and full holidays leading up to Idul Fitri. In addition, the learning schedule is carefully arranged, considering the importance of religious activities to instill spiritual values in students during the fasting month.
Of course, the implementation of this policy has triggered various reactions from the public, especially from parents of students. They are expected to be more active in accompanying their children during this independent learning period. To ensure everything runs smoothly and in accordance with educational goals and religious values, the government also provides clear guidelines. Check out the complete information summarized by Kapanlagi.com, Thursday (23/1).
1. Independent Learning Schedule at the Beginning of Ramadan
Quoted from the Joint Circular, the beginning of Ramadan 2025 starts with an independent learning schedule, or it can be said that formal learning in schools will not be conducted, from February 27 to March 5, 2025. During this period, educational institutions will provide learning assignments that can be completed. This learning can be done at home, places of worship, or community environments with guidance from the school.
It is explained there that this independent learning activity is designed to provide students with flexibility in learning while performing fasting rituals. The assignments given include spiritual activities such as reciting the Qur'an, religious studies, and social activities involving family and the surrounding community.
With the presence of independent learning, it is hoped that students can develop individual responsibility while maintaining their study routine during the month of Ramadan. Parents play an important role in ensuring that children carry out their learning tasks well.
2. Back to School in the Middle of Ramadan
After undergoing a period of independent learning, students will return to school from March 6 to March 25, 2025, where learning activities will take place as usual but with a special touch to welcome the month of Ramadan.
The government invites schools to organize additional interesting programs, such as short Islamic boarding schools, group recitations, and religious studies for Muslim students, while students of other faiths are also encouraged to participate in spiritual activities according to their beliefs.
The return of students to school in the midst of this holy month aims not only to maintain the continuity of formal learning but also to create a spiritual atmosphere that strengthens the values of worship during the fasting month.
3. Long Holiday Before Eid al-Fitr
The long-awaited holiday for school students will begin from March 26 to April 8, 2025, offering a golden opportunity to celebrate Eid al-Fitr with loved ones.
During this meaningful time, students are expected not only to reconnect with their extended families but also to engage in social activities that strengthen bonds among peers. The government reminds that this moment is the right time to weave brotherhood and maintain harmony amidst the diversity of society.
Additionally, this holiday also includes important days such as the joint leave for the Holy Day of Nyepi on March 28 and the national holiday for Nyepi on March 29, giving them more time to rest and relax.
4. Activities After Eid al-Fitr Holiday
Students in the homeland will return to their learning paths with enthusiasm on April 9, 2025, after enjoying a refreshing long holiday.
The government announced that all learning activities will return to normal, and in the Joint Circular, they encourage educational institutions to evaluate the implementation of learning during the month of Ramadan, including independent assignments and spiritual activities that have been undertaken.
With the return of these learning activities, it is hoped that students can continue the semester with new energy, after experiencing a month filled with worship and moments of family gatherings.

Collaboration from all parties is key to creating a harmonious educational environment and supporting the spiritual growth of students during this holy month.
