Sleep Scientists Say School Days Should Start Later

Getting up at dawn and going to school on another day is not good for everyone. It is not because millions of children have to go to school at 8:30 am. Once again the sleep scientist says the school should cease fighting the teenager's circadian rhythm and wait till 10 am

The fact that more sleep makes teenagers (and adults) healthier and more proficient in learning is not new. But recently the group of sleeping scientists in the UK believe that the school should not begin studying by at least 10 AM.

"At the age of 10, we will go to school along the 9 to 5 lifestyle," Kelly said recently that Mr. David Burnett covered the Guardian at the UK Science Festival. "It will be to use the same model at around the age of 55. But there will be major changes between them and depending on your age you have to start within 3 hours This is quite natural That's it. "

According to Mr. Kelly, the problem is that it is not suitable for waking up at the dawn of people between the ages of 10 and 55, especially high school and college students. Kelly said that the circadian rhythms of most adults are not suitable for getting up early, but Johnny said teenagers are most affected by the difficulty of getting up early, but Jonathan Weber is the BBC's In order to write it.

"Most people get up when they get up because they do not occur when they have to get up and go work," Kerry told Weber. "So we have a sleep deprived society - just this age group, especially 14-24 years, is even worse than any other department."

Even the disease management center seems to have received this information. As a result of surveying the public schools throughout the country, more than 75% of schools opened schools in more than 40 states by 8:30 in the morning, the Centers for Disease Control initially postponed school districts and policy makers to school districts and policy makers I requested.

"It is very important for students' health, safety, and academic performance to get enough sleep," said Annie Wighton, an epidemiologist at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. "However, school's start date is so fast that many teenagers are prevented from taking the necessary sleep."

CDC announced that Kerry 's proposal at 10 AM was not reached. In a statement, the CDC will be able to receive recommendations at the start time of 8:30 AM in the statement they will sleep from 5 to 5 every evening as long as they sleep at 11 or 12 in the evening

First, as school begins late, students can get more sleep. In our age, sleep is an important part of our growth and development. Scientists say that teenagers should sleep for 10-12 hours overnight. More sleep helps the body regenerate and the brain develop. More sleep helps students keep their vigilance and carefulness in the classroom. Clearly they will be better if the students are in the classroom. The school should start early so that someone can prepare me for adult work. It is not a problem because lack of sleep can cause health problems. This is even more important.

AASM said school needs to start after 8:30 am. Dr. Nathaniel Watson, former chairman of AASM, the main author, said in a statement: Statement explains that research supports how students can help bring students to sleep well by delaying start time, "Optimize daytime warnings, reduce delays and Increase registration. " AASM noted that students with sleep deprivation may have many mental and physical problems, including but not limited to metabolic dysfunction, increased depressive symptoms, suicidal ideation and risk-taking behavior It is. In addition, sleepy teenagers can pose a danger to other people. According to AASM, sleepiness driving is related to increased risk of car accidents including "35% of deaths and 73% of accidental deaths of teens"
