Due to a change in weather, many schools in Punjab have changed their timings. The drop in cold has led to a shift in school schedules, bringing relief to students and parents.
Earlier, many private schools in Punjab were opening at 10 am and closing at 3:30 pm. But now, these schools will start at 9 am and close at 2:30 pm. This change has been made as the weather is getting warmer, and mornings are no longer as cold as before.
Parents of school-going children are happy with this decision. They say that earlier, their children used to reach home around 4:30 pm, and then they had to attend tuition classes. This left them with no time to play or rest. With the new schedule, children will return home an hour earlier, giving them more free time in the evening.
Not only parents but also students are happy with the change. They will now have more time for outdoor activities. The weather is improving, and this new timing will make their daily routine more comfortable.
