Pediatricians from the University of Zurich also believe that a later start of school lessons at 10 a.m. at 11 a.m. can improve students’ well-being and life satisfaction. They found out that during the pandemic, students went to bed 15 minutes later, and woke up 90 minutes later, respectively, and got a great night’s sleep. “Similar studies have previously been conducted in the USA,” says somnologist, MD, Professor Roman Buzunov. – There in different states, children start studying at 8, and even at 7 in the morning. So it turned out that if you move the start of lessons to 9 a.m. at 10 a.m., then the children were doing better. But after 2–3 weeks of life according to the new schedule, the children began to go to bed even later and did not get enough sleep again. Therefore, it is more important to observe the regime and a healthy lifestyle. It is advisable to take gadgets from children 2 hours before bedtime. Teenagers should exclude strong tea, coffee, tonics and energy drinks in the afternoon. On weekends, it is recommended to sleep a maximum of 1–2 hours longer than on weekdays.
