Petition
Wording
I am writing to ask you to consider my
petition. As parents, teachers and
students/pupils know, primary schools start at 08:45 and secondary schools
start at 08:30. I would like schools to
start an hour later in the mornings meaning primary schools would start at
09:45 and secondary schools at 09:30.
A test in England has shown that students get better
exam results if school starts an hour later.
Thank you for your consideration.
Cai Ellerton, 13.
