Re: Are they NUTS?
Schools would have more time for the curriculum if they put the school hours back to what they used to be in my day – up to 1952.
That is 9:00am to 12:00noon then 1:00pm to 4:00pm with a 10 minutes ‘playtime’ break morning and afternoon.
Each lesson lasted 40 or 45 minutes so we had 8 periods per day. That’s 40 periods per week. Woodwork, Metalwork and Games were 4 periods long. Most subjects were 2 periods long twice a week with only music and RE for one period once a week.
