A school in Cardiff is consulting on plans to end the school week early at lunchtime on Fridays saying the move is to help it implement the new curriculum for Wales.
Bishop Childs Church in Wales Primary says starting earlier four days a week and finishing at 1.30pm on Fridays will help teachers deliver the Welsh Government’s new curriculum coming in from September.
The school is looking at starting the school day half an hour earlier at 8.30am from Monday to Thursday and closing at 1.30pm on Fridays. Lunchtimes would be cut to 45 minutes for older children.
