180 with a little flexibility but i to have noticed the days dwindling over the years or filled with non days of fairs and days out etc. A saturday only has to be put in once or twice and days are back up!

Our school calendar says 180 days and we haven't had any variance to that yet this year. I just checked last years and next years calendar and it also says 180, but you are right, this may vary depending on changes in Islamic holidays. There is a KHDA rule on how many days they must attend school, yet not exactly sure what it is. <em>edited by TimTam on 22/05/2013</em>

For those ladies with school age kids....how many actual days are your kids in school each year? Does this number change each year? I am not sure anyone actually counts the day?? (unlike me...!!) I notice the total days in my kid's school has been changing each year. I presume some of this is due to the Islamic calendar. However, the total number of days in school has been decreasing each year which I find odd. AY11/12 was 173 days, AY 12/13 was 171 days, AY 13/14 is 168 days. I didn't keep the calendar for 10/11... Thoughts? Curious if anyone else pays attention to this..
