The amended term dates were decided upon after collaboration with the stakeholders in order to cover the final two terms of the 2020 academic year and stabilize the academic calendar by December 2020. According to a NewsHub quote from the ministry.
The second term of 2023 will start on May 8 and end on August 11 in accordance with the new timetable, which left the opening dates unaltered.

For the purpose of preparing for the national exams, the third term will last nine weeks, from 28 August to 27 October.
