在kiasu parents论坛上看到有家长说实行单班制后小学上午开始上课的时间会是8：15am左右，不知道这消息确切吗？
教育部对这个的问题的答复是：

Name and Constituency of Member of Parliament
Mr Calvin Cheng, Nominated Member of Parliament
Question
To ask the Minister for Education whether single-session primary schools can start later in the morning so that young children can get more sleep.
Response
1All schools, including single-session primary schools, have the flexibility to decide on their own start times. Such flexibility allows schools to take into account local conditions in their decisions. These local factors include the needs of their students and the programmes of the school, the impact of timetabling of PE lessons and of lessons stretching into the afternoons, the preferences of parents, school bus transportation arrangements and the traffic conditions around the school.
2Public feedback on the start time for primary schools has been mixed. Some parents prefer a later start time while others prefer the current start time, which fits well into their daily routines. Concerns have also been raised on the possible challenges of arranging for school bus transportation with a later start time, including a rise in bus fares if school bus operators had to give up transporting factory workers due to the later start times of schools.
3The question was also discussed during the deliberations of the Primary Education Review and Implementation (PERI) Committee. After careful consideration, the Committee supported the current position of allowing each school to decide on its own start time.
多谢！所以这是各个学校自己定的。想让孩子多睡一会儿真难，看来要学孟母三迁，搬到学校附近住比较妥当。
