Education (Term) Length
According to the laws of the Ministry of National Education in Turkey, it is aimed for a healthy education year to be a continuous total of 180 working days.
How Many Days Has It Been Since Schools Opened?(Training Day)
This tool is primarily for Turkey.
How to Use?
1
Just Open the Page
You do not need to enter the calendar and count the days one by one, the system instantly retrieves the date of that day from smart satellites.
2
MEB Opening Date Comparison
In the background (Ex: Monday, September 9th) the time difference between the official starting line of the training period (Today) is scanned.
3
Actual Training Day Sorting
Not only the "Total elapsed day", but also the weekends when the student does not go to school are eliminated from the system and a net "Class Day" is presented.
What is this tool for?
Why Are We Counting Days?
Time management is very important especially for exam groups (LGS, YKS); seeing what percentage of the term has finished provides psychological planning.
Weekend Distinction
A total of 60 days having passed does not mean that school was attended for 60 days. Saturday and Sunday within this are in 'Holiday' status.
Effect of Midterm Breaks (1 Week)
Although the one-week midterm breaks in November and April extend the calendar period, they are not taken into account as actual 'School Working Days'.
When should you use this?
How Is the "How Many Days Since Schools Opened?" Counter Calculated?
After a 3-month summer vacation, when the first bell of September rings, where students meet their desks with great excitement (and sometimes reluctance), a long marathon begins. As months pass, the curiosity of "How long have I been coming to school? Has half the term finished?" begins. ToolBoxTR Education Day Counter takes the official education calendar announced by the Ministry of National Education (MEB) Central Organization as its basis. The two time periods between the start date in this calendar and the "Today's" date you connected from your phone are subtracted from each other.
Why Are Education Working Days and Holidays Kept Separate?
Our strongest mathematical feature that distinguishes us from an ordinary calendar calculation is that we perform "Filtration." For example, if you entered the system two months (60 days) after schools opened in September, a plain counter tells you "It's been 60 days since schools opened." Yet, within these 60 days, there are also Saturdays and Sundays when you never went to school and slept in the mornings! Our tool algorithmically sifts through and discards all weekends within those 60 days. The result: "The Education Day (Working Day) when you actually left home and went to school."
Is It Used for Private Schools and Study Centers?
As it is known, private high schools, private colleges, and LGS/YKS courses may not follow the state calendar and may carry out "Early registration - Compensation/Acceleration camp" as of the second week of August. Since the calculation shown by our tool on the screen starts according to the state (official curriculum), a 12th-grade student going to the acceleration camp should know that they have studied for about 30 days more than shown in this table.
Attendance Limits and Psychological (Motivation) Planning
Constantly asking the question "What is my nth education day?" is the savior of students looking for the right to be absent in their minds. There is a total of 30 working days of absenteeism right in high school: 10 days unexcused and 20 days excused. If you have reached 80% of the term and your limits are full, this indicator also serves as an academic awakening wall that reminds you that you need to wake up when the alarm rings in the mornings.
Frequently Asked Questions
No, the education day tool is based on the start of the 'Education Year (e.g., September)'. It performs a unified count covering the 1-year period until the June closing, subtracting the semester break (15-day break) from the duration in between.
Our tool is programmed according to the standard National Education annual academic calendar (Legislation). If 2 days of snow holiday are declared by the governorate in winter, since this is a local situation, the algorithm on the screen may continue to count the general Turkish operation.
Generally, e-Okul (Grade entry system) closes its system on the Wednesday of the last week when report cards are to be given. This corresponds to the period when 'it has been 85 - 90 working days since schools opened' on average.
A student whose unexcused absence (without a report) exceeds 10 days fails. If you missed 15 days of the 180-day school period by looking at this tool, your parent can have 5 days counted as activity leave by going to school (with a petition).
