Closed petition I think school should be held Monday to Wednesday, giving us a longer weekend

Closed on

I believe that having school five days a week makes kids feel more negatively towards having to drag themselves there everyday. I think that if we reduce this to three days per week then kids will have a more positive attitude towards school and take more information in. Thank you.

My evidence is that I am a pupil that doesn’t particularly enjoy school and the amount of work to complete each week. If school time is reduced by a couple days per week then I would learn more. However, if this petition was approved holiday times would also need to be reduced, but not enough that we’re still at school the same amount of time.
