The idea
Days take an plus dative: am Montag, an welchen Tagen. Die Berufsschule is the vocational school in Germany’s dual training system; school may be on fixed weekdays or in blocks (Blockunterricht), depending on the trade and region. Einplanen means to schedule. “Aufeinander abstimmen” means to coordinate two things with each other. Gelten für plus accusative says what a rule applies to: für den ganzen Monat.
Other ways to say it
“Wann habe ich Berufsschule?” – Short and everyday; fine with your trainer.
“Habe ich Blockunterricht oder feste Schultage?” – Asks which school model applies.
“Mein Schulplan ändert sich ab März, ich bringe ihn mit.” – Practical; offers to bring the timetable.

Watch out
“In welchen Tagen ist die Berufsschule eingeplant?” → “An welchen Tagen ist die Berufsschule eingeplant?”: Weekdays and dates take an, not in: am Montag, an welchen Tagen. In is for months, seasons and years, which is why learners mix them up.

Gelten diese Tage für den ganzen Monat?
A yes/no question with “Gelten” first. “Diese Tage” is the plural subject, and “für den ganzen Monat” is accusative after für.
