Have you ever thought of starting school later? Maybe at about 8:30am or 9am? Of course this would also mean ending school later but in this way, we, the students will have more time to sleep, eat brekfast and spend more time with our parents who are getting ready to go to work.
However, the main reason on why we should start school later is because the students will be able to get sufficient sleep. Many children need to wake up early to go to school on time. Some even skip breakfast, the most important meal of the day, just to get extra time to sleep.People who get insufficient sleep would not absorb and process information, solve problems or make decisions as well. It can also stunt child's physical growth, make him or her fat and cranky and lead to medical problems. When school starts later, smart students score better, students soak up information faster and slow learners would be quicker on the update.

At the same time, here's also a reason why schools here have to start early.
(1) There are not enough schools in Singapore and it is necessary to run two sessions in one school, and this happens to my school as well. Schools have to run two sessions to provide space for all our students. However, more schools are becoming single-session.
(2) The students who go to school by school buses which have to ferry workers to factories after bringing the students to school. And starting school later means that it would disrupt their schedules.

So, here are some of the ways to help schools start later:-
(1)Bus operators can ferry workers to factories first, then pick up students for school.-
(2)Expand the school's area so it can become single-session.-
(3)Start E-learning at home as i agree with the idea of starting school later if it allows us to have sufficient sleep so that we can concentrate well during school lessons and improve our studies. :)
