Most schools already do this, and the majority of those that don’t are within 15 minutes of meeting the requirement.

   Will a 32.5 hour school week make a difference?

   • The 32.5 hour school week is equivalent to 08:45 to 15.15, with the government arguing that a child with a school day shorter by 20 minutes a day would lose two weeks of schooling over the course of a year. But education unions said the new requirement would make little difference, as most schools already met the threshold.
