Require schools to operate a 4 day week

Petition Details

I believe two days is not enough time as a break mentally. Students could use three-days spending time with family since it could improve mental health, help children perform better academically, and lower risk of behavioural problems.

Additional Information

Students with busy schedules can quickly become overwhelmed because they are left with no free time to relax. Stress can cause many serious mental health problems such as: depression, anxiety, and personal disorders. Being surrounded in an environment where students are being put on pressure is normal makes students a vulnerable target to such mental health problems.
