I checked my high school and others districts to confirm they operate on an 8 am - 3 pm schedule +/- 30 minutes. Is this uncommon?
- danieloaks 11y agoSame over here in Aus, those are standard hours for most every school I've seen.
- _kyran 11y agoLittle later in my experience (vic) 9am to 3:20
- pbhjpbhj 11y agoThat's standard UK primary school (4-11yo) hours too.
- Normal_gaussian 11y agoAnd pretty much the same for secondary. 560 min or 650 min periods, 45 min lunch, 15 min morning break. 6 hour minimum day. Any extra time is padding for registration or longer breaks.
