Petition Action

Begin and end school days later

Petition Details

School days should stay the same length as it is an appropriate amount of learning, however, it should start later (around 10/11am) and end later too (around 4/5pm)

Additional Information

It goes against the nature of children and teenagers to wake up early and go to sleep early, and in being forced to do so, it exhausts most children and teens. A study by an OU academic found that when children and teens start their school days at 10am, the amount of absences in school days dropped by over 50%
