Hours in school

How long does a ten yea old spend in school

The typical week

9.5 hours once a week
8 hours a day 3 times a week
6 hours a day once a week

Breaks? 2 half hour breaks each day.

Then homework. Soon to he at least an hour a day?
So that becomes 7 9 and 10.5 most days.

Rest of time is for eating sleeping and maybe a bit of play if absolutely necessary.
So what do I hope to get out of this meeting

1. An acknowledgement if how the extra hours can affect each kid

2. A move to reduce the number of extra hours a kid attends per term

3. maybe suggest smaller groups on alternate weeks so learning is more custlmozed rather than have whole class stay back for an extra 7 to 8 hours a term
