Schools in Maharashtra will soon start classes from 9 am or later for students up to Std IV, following a recent circular from the government. The circular, issued on Thursday evening, directs schools to adjust their timings accordingly, without specifying the implementation date.
Last December, Governor Ramesh Bais urged the government to change school timings for young children, citing concerns about disrupted sleep patterns. He emphasised the adverse effects of modern lifestyle habits on students` sleep quality and overall enthusiasm for learning.
