Jammu, Sept 30: The Directorate of School Education Jammu has officially announced new timings for government and private schools across the Jammu Division, effective October 1. This decision affects both Summer and Winter Zones and aims to optimize learning conditions for students.
From October, schools in the Summer Zone will operate between 9:00 AM and 3:00 PM. As the winter months approach, starting November, these timings will shift to 9:30 AM to 3:30 PM. However, schools located within the Jammu Municipal Corporation limits and adjacent urban areas will maintain the earlier schedule of 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM.
For the Winter Zone, all schools will commence operations at 9:30 AM and conclude at 3:30 PM starting October 1. The Directorate emphasizes that this adjustment is vital for maximizing student attendance and enhancing educational outcomes.
The announcement stems from the need to adapt to seasonal changes and ensure better academic performance throughout the year. By modifying the school timings, authorities plan to improve the learning environment, especially in the colder months.
The Directorate has issued a stern warning about adherence to these new timings. Schools that deviate from the schedule will face strict action. The education department aims to ensure compliance as they track the effectiveness of this transition.
Parents and students should remain informed about these changes to avoid any confusion once classes resume in October. Local authorities encourage families to adjust their routines accordingly to align with the new school timings.
The adjustments reflect the administration’s commitment to enhancing educational standards and ensuring that students benefit from optimal learning conditions. Parents are urged to support this initiative by facilitating early school attendance for their children.
For further updates on school timings and other educational matters, residents are advised to follow official announcements from the Directorate of School Education Jammu closely.
