During the breaks between classes, Xiao Jingsheng from Beijing Shangdi Experimental School often had to run to the toilet and then back to class with no time for anything else. But now things are different. “I can have more time to rest and share interesting things with my classmates,” said the 14-year-old boy.
Starting from this autumn term, students at primary and middle schools in Beijing have longer breaks between classes—from 10 minutes to 15 minutes. Students now can spend more time outside, so they can be healthier and happier.
Many schools have spaces for reading, resting and even playing with animals. “We have some ducks and rabbits in our school!” said Zhang Boren, a 13-year-old student from Beijing 101 Middle School. “Now we can play with them or exercise on the playground. Getting closer to nature is relaxing.”
