The Haryana Education Department has announced new school timings for both single-shift and double-shift schools, effective November 16, as a response to the escalating cold weather and foggy conditions.
The Haryana Education Department has made significant adjustments to the operational hours for all government and private schools. In line with these changes, single-shift schools will now function from 9:30 AM to 3:30 PM starting November 16. For double-shift schools, the first shift will run from 7:55 AM to 12:30 PM, while the second shift will operate from 12:40 PM to 5:15 PM. These new timings are a result of the intensifying cold weather and the prevalence of fog in the region.
A spokesperson for the department explained that this decision was taken with student safety as a top priority, aiming to shield them from the adverse effects of the cold and foggy conditions. He further warned that strict action, in accordance with departmental regulations, will be taken against any educational institution that fails to comply with these orders.
