Personally I think it might be a good idea to collapse the school day so that children go to and from school in daylight hours.Works at the school I work in.Start at 8.30,no lunch hour,just two 20 minute breaks and finish at 2.30 pm.This leaves time after school for clubs,sports fixtures and detentions and the students can be home before it is dark.With no lunch hour there is the added bonus of less time to plot mischief.

Frankly in this day and age I can't see the point of the chop and change.During wartime yes there was a point but not now.I'm sure farmers can survive.

Incog.
