Surrey Schools Readies for 2025-26 Year with Key Details

The countdown to the start of the 2025-26 school year in Surrey is underway, with classes scheduled to commence on September 2, 2025. Surrey Schools has released essential information for parents, caregivers, and students to ensure a smooth transition back to the classroom.

School Office Hours and Gradual Entry for Kindergarten

While summer sun continues to shine, secondary school offices in Surrey are already open on weekdays starting at 09:00. Elementary school offices will follow suit, opening from 10:00 to 15:00 beginning on August 25, 2025. This marks the beginning of preparations for the influx of students, particularly those entering kindergarten, who will follow a gradual entry schedule for the first two weeks of school.

Parents are advised to check their emails and individual school websites for specific start dates and times. All kindergarten students are expected to begin regular, full-time attendance on September 15, 2025.

Class Schedules for Grades 1 to 7 and Secondary Schools

On opening day, classes for students in grades 1 through 7 will start at 10:00 and will be dismissed early. Specific start and dismissal times may vary by school, so it is crucial for parents to confirm these details with their respective institutions.

Secondary schools will also implement a shortened first day, with start and end times differing by school and grade level. To ensure clarity, contacting each school directly will provide the most accurate information regarding class schedules.

In addition to the regular schools, learning centers will also open their offices starting on August 25. Opening class times and dates for these centers will be provided by SAIL, and parents can reach out for further details.

For families new to Surrey Schools, registration begins on August 25, 2025. The district offers support for students who are English language learners (ELL), including registration assistance, placement assessments, and access to settlement and multicultural workers.

For comprehensive information about school registration and essential contact details, parents are encouraged to visit the Surrey Schools website. This proactive approach aims to ensure that students and families are well-prepared for the upcoming academic year.
