The outbreak of fog is increasing in UP and the temperature is also dropping rapidly. Due to this, there has been intense cold here in the past few days. In this situation, going to school in the morning is quite a difficult task for children. At the same time, it can also harm their health. For these reasons, the UP government has changed the timings of schools. Now classes will start at 10 AM. It should also be noted that this order is only for the students of primary and middle schools. That is, only classes 1 to 8 will start late.
Changes in Timing and School Closure
If we talk according to the districts, different decisions have been taken everywhere, keeping in mind the weather. For example, in Ghaziabad, schools from classes 1 to 8 will run from 10 AM to 3 PM. Meanwhile, in Aligarh, schools for students from classes 1 to 12 will be closed on Thursdays and Fridays.
Similarly, in Mathura, classes from 10 to 3 will be held. In Jalaun, schools from classes 1 to 8 will be closed until December 31st.
Announcement of Winter Break
The Director General of the School Education Department had announced winter vacations for schools some time ago. Holidays will be declared in the state-owned schools of Uttar Pradesh from December 31 to January 14, 2024, that is, schools here will be closed for about 15 days.
Holidays at Many Places
This order is for government schools and holidays have started in most private schools here. Schools have not been closed here due to the cold weather, winter break has been announced directly. Meanwhile, private schools have been closed.
Conclusion
In conclusion, it can be said that the government of Uttar Pradesh has made changes in the school timings in response to the increasing cold wave and falling temperatures. The decision to adjust school timings and declare winter vacations in some districts shows the government’s concern for the health and safety of students. It is important for schools and parents to prioritize the well-being of children during the winter season, and these measures are a step in the right direction. It is also evident that private schools have taken similar measures to ensure the safety of their students. Overall, these decisions reflect the collaborative effort to protect students from the harsh winter weather.
