» Tuesday, September 19, 2006Extended Schools
Asked if Beverley Hughes’s announcement of extended schools hours conflicted with Archbishop Rowan Williams’s comments yesterday saying children were working too hard, the Prime Minister’s Official Spokesman (PMOS) said the whole point of opening schools for extended hours was so children started the day with proper breakfast. In addition, they also got the chance, if their parents could not help them, to get help with their homework. The PMOS emphasised it was about reducing pressure on children not increasing pressure.
