From Monday, 9 November, all general secondary schools in the Bucha community have moved to an adaptive timetable. Lessons have been shortened to 35 minutes.

This was reported by Bucha City Council.

The city council explains that the step is needed because of long power outages, falling temperatures and shorter daylight. The decision follows recommendations from the Ministry of Education and Science, to keep conditions safe.

The community says in-person learning remains its main priority. Shorter lessons should reduce the impact of the energy deficit and allow classes to finish before dusk.

This week the sun will set in Bucha between 16:22 on Monday and 16:13 on Sunday, according to our weekly weather forecast.

Parents are asked to be understanding about the changes and to adjust in advance the routes they use to take children to school and back home.

As a reminder, the government decided how schools should teach during long air raid alerts and which subjects take priority.
