They're saying it is to allow teachers time for professional development, marking etc. when they aren't as tired at the end of the week, but teachers weren't consulted and the ones I've talked to don't like this (a lot of them are parents too and since they'll have to be in school they are as inconvenienced as the rest of us). They also say to give kids a chance for more sleep but since it is just one day and most of them will probably need to get up to go to out of school care or whatever anyhow it doesn't hold either.
