Where can I find school holidays for academic year 2024/ 25 in the Isaan region?

The subject says it all. My SO sent me this link which, after Brave translated it to English, does not seem to reveal the long holidays. I understand there is a long holiday in October.

Mean time I have e-mailed the school (in english) after trying to find the holiday info on their web site. Just in case I don't get a timely reply, I thought I would post the same question here.

 

My lack of Thai literacy prevents me from obtaining very basic information

Good luck with that.  The schools like to keep everyone guessing on when the holidays will be.  I think the power goes to the directors heads in the schools in Thailand.

You can not rely on what anyone says. Every school stops and starts their long holidays when they want as long as it is within a certain time frame. The only way to be sure is to ask the school directly. My kids in Prachuap do not start theirs until November. In Bangkok some schools start October 1 while others start holiday in mid-October.

Having worked in them, When the holidays start at each school is entirely at the whim of the schools dictator, opps I mean director...

As zyphod said all schools set their own calendars.  However, the link you posted has the answers:

1 October  - End of Term 1

28 - 31 October - Teacher Planning Days

1 November - Beginning of Term 2

 

So most students should be off for all of October.  However, if you are a foreign teacher, you may have more time off, the same time off or less time off than the Thai teachers.
