Later start to secondary school days — 6 signatures. Status: rejected.
The current system forces teenagers to wake up at times that disrupt their natural biological sleep patterns. Morning rush hour means some students arrive to school later and a 10:00 am start resolves both issues, supporting student well-being and ensuring more people arrive on time.
A later start will vastly improve students' attitude to school and reduce sleep deprivation. Allowing teenagers enough sleep fosters a positive, motivated attitude towards learning. Which will create a happier, more productive classroom enviroment
