The Education Department has directed all schools to conduct classes from 9:30 am to 12:30 pm in the forenoon session and between 1:30 pm and 4:30 pm in the afternoon session with four periods in each session from 2021-22 academic year in all the working days. However, for teachers, the Lakshadweep school timings will be between 9 am and 12:30 pm and for the afternoon session, it is 1:30 pm to 4:30 pm.
The decision to modify the school timings has been made to accommodate classes for “Halcyon Heights”. The Department has decided to implement “Halcyon Heights” in primary classes from Class 1 to Class 5 to ensure a joyful, experiential and competency-based teaching-learning process in schools for the better physical, mental and social development of the learners.
