The Odisha State Commission for Protection of Child Rights (OSCPCR) has suggested an increase in the learning hour in the schools.
At present, classes are being conducted in schools from 6 am 9 am.
OSCPCR Chairperson Sandhyabati Pradhan wrote a letter to the State School and Mass Education (S&ME) department in this regard.
Pradhan suggested the department to consider an increase in the school hour in the wake of change in the weather condition.
She said extending the time up to at least 10 am will ease both teachers and students.
