Tripura School Holidays in February 2026: School Closures Dates for Festival and Important Days

Tripura School Holidays: February 2026 is expected to be a highly academic month for students across the state. With the Tripura Board of Secondary Education (TBSE) examinations approaching, the focus shifts entirely to syllabus completion, practicals, and revision. Unlike January, which often sees winter breaks or festival holidays like Saraswati Puja (Vasant Panchami), February is generally a full working month for government and private schools in Agartala and other districts.

Parents and students looking for the Tripura school holiday list for February 2026 should note that the schedule is tight. There are no major long vacations, and the primary festival of the month falls on a weekend.

Tripura School Holiday List: February 2026

Based on the official government holiday patterns and the 2026 calendar, the following are the notable dates for schools in Tripura.

NOTE: Since Maha Shivaratri falls on a Sunday, it will not result in an additional day off for schools. International Mother Language Day is widely observed in Tripura, but schools often remain open for celebrations or function as a regular working day depending on the institution.

Maha Shivaratri & International Mother Language Day

Maha Shivaratri (February 15 - Sunday):

Maha Shivaratri is a significant festival for the Hindu community in Tripura, celebrated with fervor at major temples like the Unakoti and Udaipur Tripurasundari temple. However, as the festival falls on a Sunday in 2026, schools will not declare a separate holiday.

International Mother Language Day (February 21 - Saturday):

This day holds immense cultural significance in Tripura due to the state's linguistic heritage (Bangla and Kokborok). While it is a recognized observance:

• Government Schools: Often organize processions ("Prabhat Pheris") and cultural programs to honor language martyrs.

• Private Schools: May conduct special assemblies or literary competitions.

• Holiday Status: It is typically not a "closed" holiday; attendance is often required for the celebrations. Students should check their diaries for specific instructions.

No Winter Vacation or Extended Break

By February, the severe winter conditions that sometimes cause school closures in Tripura during January (seasonal cold waves) usually subside. Consequently:

• There are no scheduled winter vacations in February.

• Schools function on a full-time schedule to ensure all academic requirements are met before the session ends.

TBSE Board Exam Preparation in February

For students under the Tripura Board of Secondary Education (TBSE), specifically those in Madhyamik (Class 10) and Higher Secondary (Class 12), February is the most critical month.

• Practical Exams: Science and Geography practicals are often scheduled during this window.

• Pre-Board/Sent-up Exams: Schools conduct final revisions and internal assessments.

• Admit Cards: Distribution of board exam admit cards usually begins or is finalized by late February.

• Special Classes: Many schools run extra classes for board students to solve previous years' papers.

Important Information for Students and Parents

• Variation in Schedule: Private English-medium schools (CBSE/ICSE) in Agartala may have slightly different schedules compared to state government schools regarding preparatory leaves.

• Attendance: Strict attendance is usually monitored in February for internal assessment marks.

• Official Confirmation: Always verify dates with the official circulars issued by the School Education Department, Government of Tripura, or your respective school administration.

Summary: February 2026 in Tripura is a month dedicated to academics. With Maha Shivaratri falling on a Sunday and no other major gazetted holidays, students should prepare for a month of regular classes and intense exam preparation.
