UP School Timings: Schools opened in UP, time changed on demand, now school closing time will be at this time..
UP School Timings Changed: Primary schools in Uttar Pradesh have reopened from June 16, 2025, but keeping in mind the scorching heat and the demand of teacher organizations, the school timings have been changed. The Uttar Pradesh Basic Education Council has decided that children will not be called to schools till June 30, 2025. Given the summer season, it has been decided to continue the summer vacation. However, during this time teachers will have to be present in the school.
Till June 30, 2025, if teachers want, they can also do some important administrative and educational work online. Due to the heat, teacher organizations had demanded the Chief Minister to keep the schools completely closed (UP School Summer Vacation 2025). It was also said that the school session in UP should start from July 1. However, the UP Basic Education Council has refused to extend the summer vacation of teachers. However, some relief can be found by changing the time.
The timing of UP schools has changed.
The outbreak of heat is continuously increasing in Uttar Pradesh. For this reason, changing the timing of schools is a great decision. The UP Basic Education Council had earlier decided to open schools from June 16, but giving priority to the safety of children, it has been decided to postpone the classes till June 30. During this period, teachers will have to come to school for administrative work like enrollment, record updates, and preparation for the next session. According to the new time, primary schools will now operate from 7:30 am to 12:30 pm.
Regular classes will start in July.
This change in UP school timing has been made to reduce the effect of heat. The temperature is highest in the afternoon. Teacher organizations say that the new schedule is convenient for both children and teachers. Schools will start running completely regularly from July 1, when the effect of heat is expected to reduce. Children's studies will not be affected by this change. Teachers can continue their studies through online resources and homework.
When will the new session start?
The Uttar Pradesh Junior High School Teachers Association has demanded from the government that the school session should be started on July 1 as before. Currently, the session starts in April, which falls at the peak of summer. During this time, parents hesitate to send children to school, which affects enrollment. Teachers' organizations argue that the heat can pose a threat to the health of children and teachers also have trouble staying in school for a long time. Starting the session from July 1 will increase attendance in schools and the environment will also be better.
Classes can be held online.
This new system has also brought relief to parents. Due to heat, many parents avoid sending their children to school as the temperature goes above 40 degrees Celsius in the afternoon. Due to the new time (7:30 am to 12:30 pm), children will be saved from the afternoon heat. Also, the option of online study will maintain continuity in the education of children. The Basic Education Council has instructed schools to start teaching children using online resources like video lectures and worksheets.
Improved system in schools
The Uttar Pradesh government has taken several steps to improve the education system. The Basic Education Council is working on improving basic facilities like fans, coolers, and drinking water arrangements in schools. Apart from this, teachers are being trained in online teaching to promote digital education. The government's goal is that children's studies should not be affected by heat or other seasonal challenges. In the future, there is a plan to make the school timings and sessions more flexible according to the weather.
