The 40 weeks according to the ministry includes; 12 weeks for term one, 14 weeks for term two and another 14 weeks for term three.

But further clarifications suggest that the students shall be staying in school for 43 weeks instead of the 40 weeks being indicated by the Ministry of Education.
This includes a 13-week stay in school for term one, which starts from the 18th of January to the 14th of April 2022.
