Make school days 4 days long with an extra hour but it is 1 hour with friends

Petition Details

So basically I want the Government or Parliament to let kids have 4 days of school each week with an extra hour but the extra hour will be a time where you can hang out with your friends and do fun activities.

Additional Information

I want this to happen because I think that it will improve the kids mental health and make people like school more and there might be a smaller suicide rate for kids and teenagers
