School should start at 10:00
School should start later (10:00) in the day than the usual 8:00 am, because the more sleep that we get, the more focused we will be in class. Because of the lack of sleep students are more likely to be tired during class hours.
Students will be more tired because of the lack of sleep that they are getting, waking up early in the morning. “School starting later in the day can benefit student sleep patterns, leading to improved academic performance and overall well-being, particularly for adolescents.” Says Britannia. This shows that because they are more tired, due to having shorter sleeping hours, they will continue to be tired continuously. We can therefore see that because of the lack of sleep students are more tired during class.
Students wont focus of their work when they are tired. They are more likely to want to concentrate on something else in the room. “Students may struggle to focus in class when they are tired due to a variety of factors, including a reduced ability to concentrate, increased irritability, and a decline in cognitive function. Fatigue can make it harder to process information, retain what is learned, and maintain motivation, all of which are crucial for effective learning” says Britannica. Because of this, students are more likely to fiddle with things in the pencil case or other thing, including wanting to wiper with the person next to them. We can therefore see that students wont focus on their work when they are tired.
Students are more likely not to listen when they are tired and zone out and focus on something else. “Students are more likely to “zone out” or become disengaged from learning when they are “tied” in a metaphorical sense, meaning they are experiencing challenges or circumstances that hinder their ability to focus and take part.” Says Britannica. This means that students are not wanting to listen to what the teacher is saying, and they are focusing on something else. It is clear that because of this students will want to listen on something else instead of the teacher.
Because of all these statements, I think that I have proven my point of why we school should start at 10:00 am.
Wow! thats great

Imagine a world where schools won’t interfere with after-school activities, students enjoying the freedom of getting an early break from school, happiness explodes from children whether it’s shopping at the mall or playing at the park. Schools shouldn’t start later in the morning because it will cause delay in all activities, interfere with bedtime, and can be a potential danger to students.
Have you ever missed out on playdates because you still had to stay at school? Schools shouldn’t start earlier because it can interfere with activities. If school started at 8 o’clock, students would have lots more time after school as it will end at 2 o’clock rather than 4. Studies show in that two hours, the amount of missing assignments drop by 25%. Kids can also play more, increasing their happiness and can get them to do homework earlier, thus improving grades. This is why schools shouldn’t start later.
Another reason schools shouldn’t start earlier is because it can interfere with bedtime. Although later school times could give kids more time to sleep, this may backfire especially for teenagers as they are known for liking to sleep late. The teenagers may think that later school time means later bedtime , ruining the purpose of later school start times. This also gets rid of preparation for the future as adults would have to wake up early Monday to Friday to get to work.
Lastly, schools shouldn’t have later start times because it can put students in danger. Have you ever been forced to stay back after school to do activities? Studies show that after school activities last for 1 hour per session, meaning if school started at ten, you would be home by 5:30. In some months, the sun can set at 5 o’clock in June and the latest being 5:30 in April and August. Once you return home from school, there wouldn’t be enough time to go play before the sun gets dark. And if you do go out, there will be less people, increasing the risk of criminals or bullies harming you.
Schools shouldn’t start later because they will interfere with activities, change bedtime and put you in harm’s way. Based on the evidence above, this is why schools shouldn’t start later.
DONE!

Why Schools Should Start Later In The Morning
You wake up every day at eight am in the morning five days each week. You are all tired but you know you must wake up and get ready for school. How frustrated would you be not being able to sleep in and rest for longer? I strongly recommended that all schools should change the time kids start to 10:00 am. This is because students won’t be as tired when they arrive at school, they would be ready and not be late for school, and kids would be able to sleep in for a longer period of time.
First and foremost, schools should start later in the morning because they won’t be as tired for school. Have a think of having to wake up from a nice sleep just to go to school. Not only is this extremely annoying, you would have to go to school tired because you didn’t get enough rest. According to scientific studies, lack of sleep and feeling tired when you go to school sometimes means you lose concentration. You can also feel extremely dizzy at times and you can mentally drift off at times during class. My first reason why school should start later in the morning is because students will not be as tired when they arrive at school.
Additionally, I believe schools should start later in the morning at ten a.m. because students would be ready for school and won’t be late. You wake up at eight but you have to quickly eat breakfast and get changed. Once you complete all of this, you have to either walk to school or drive to school. You are feeling great that you will arrive at school on time but something stops you on the way. Traffic. If school started later, students would be able to get ready earlier and arrive at school on time. My second reason why schools should start later in the morning is because kids would be ready on time and they would not be late for school.
Furthermore, schools should start later in the morning so that kids will get the opportunity to sleep for a longer period of time. Waking up early in the morning and you don’t get enough sleep. If schools start later in the morning, it allows kids to be able to sleep in and rest for longer. Resting longer will make you concentrate more in class and you won’t be as tired when you arrive at school. My final reason why I believe schools should start later in the morning at ten a.m is because kids can sleep in and get better rest.
To summarise, I strongly recommended that all schools should start at ten am in the morning because kids won’t be as tired when they arrive at school, they would be ready and not be late to classes, and kids can sleep in and get more rest. Would you agree with this?
