As per the official notice, single-shift schools will run from 9:30 am to 3:30 pm in winter while double-shift schools will run from 7:55 am to 12:30 pm in the first shift and from 12:40 pm to 5:15 pm in the second shift

The Haryana Directorate of School Education has revised the school timings for the academic session for 2024-25 due to seasonal changes for both single and double-shift schools across the state. As per the official notice, single-shift schools will run from 9:30 am to 3:30 pm in winter while double-shift schools will run from 7:55 am to 12:30 pm in the first shift and from 12:40 pm to 5:15 pm in the second shift. The schools have been directed to follow the new timings till February 15, 2025.

“Instructions have been issued to revise the timings in Haryana schools for the 2024-25 session. Single-shift schools will run from 9:30 am to 3:30 pm in winter. Double shift schools (till February 15, 2025) will run from 7:55 am to 12:30 pm in the first shift and from 12:40 pm to 5:15 pm in the second shift,” the Haryana CMO announced via microblogging site X.

The Haryana’s Parents Association had earlier requested the Education Department to change the timing of the second shift in schools. According to them, most of the government schools with evening shifts close at around 6 pm. Parents are worried that due to winter, the sun sets early and it may not be safe for students.

Furthermore, all government and private schools in Haryana will remain closed on the second Saturday of every month. This order was implemented on November 9, 2024. This will give students a chance to enjoy two days off (Saturday and Sunday). All the District Education Officers have been ordered not to call students to school on any pretext during the holidays. If this happens, then the Education Department will take action against the school.
