The mind is freshest in the morning. The fresher the mind the better learning experience one will have. Nothing to think about and worry about if school starts in the morning! If it started in the afternoon... 1)hanging out with friends would be first and then the thought of skipping would be an even easier choice, 2)you would be asking why does school start in the afternoon and children have to stay at school so late (starting at noon school would end at 6 or 7 at night). I would definitely rather my child be at school in the morning when the sun is out than at night with no lighting, especially if my child had to walk home from school or the bus stop. Imagine the danger they would be in then!

Very good question

There is some theory behind this

During eygyptian times people adapted their life to the sun therefore they would work when the sun was at it coolest period. This would make them more energetic and be able to use more of their physical attributes during the day.


After the romans and rennesiance the new time mechanism was made people use to divide a day into three units. Morning, Afternoon& Evening


Now your question implies why do children go school during the day firslty most concepts and ideas are brought up by past activities during history and civilisational advances. Humans tend to be more active during the day say for instance the eygyptians or roman went on conquest during the day rather then the night.


The time adaption used by our ancestors are imbedded into our daily lives. In retropect whatever happened in the past is crucial to our daily activities. The whole idea of school as an instutiutiional establishment started in the victorian era this is when children adopted the whole concept of starting school in the morning rather then the afternoon.

Human pshycologist suggest as children neurology brain system is most active in the day they can be able to learn much more faster. In the morning the brain functions much more faster then any other period. As children need to focus and attain a good understanding it is vital that they start school during the morning. In the afternoon the brain gradually looses small amount of activity and this is why during the night it needs to rest.

Overall The morning is a much better time frame as children are able to gain more knowledge as their brain grasp more information and they are able to pick up things more eaisly. Howver there are other reason as the day is divided into 3 parts the system of startting early allows them to have the rest of the day of. Therefore the system is laid out logically and helps children as they can do other activities. It also helps them prepare for the real world of work when they will need to wake up early and go tot work. This is then a habit and can be easy to do again and gain for work etc etc.

And as the old saying goes the early bird catches the worm.

Hope I helped on some understanding Thank you

Could you imagine the electricity it would use up if the world went to school in the evening ... and then everyone would be complaining they were getting up to early because the whole day would be shifted and the evening would be morning...

Perhaps that if you went to bed at 4:00 and slept until 12:00 and then got up and did whatever until you decided to get ready for school at 6:00....................

It sucks fro countless motives. Your mum and dad would make homework act like artwork instead of being interested in what and the type you remedy issues etc. Your instructor could make discovering greater exciting for you so as which you would be looking forward to day after immediately of sophistication to proportion you you discovered during the evening. As for you the greater you think of negatively approximately college the greater serious it is going to get for you. substitute your suggestions-set and study issues inspite of what is going on around you.

You are being conditioned at an early age to get up early to go to work.

However...I would not have thought that you needed to get up at 6AM to go to school.

They have rules in this world.
Everyone has to get up early in the morning.
So much for freedom of choice.
