London school says 11-hour-day pilot is for pupil wellbeing
Briefly

All Saints Catholic College in North Kensington launches a 10-week pilot of longer school days without phones to simulate 'private school service' for pupils.
Head teacher Andrew O'Neill clarifies that pupils are not obligated to attend the full 11-hour day, including meals, providing flexibility.
The pilot program, costing parents £10 per pupil per week, integrates academic subjects, sports, drama, and cooking, aiming to create positive relationships and endorphins.
Mr. O'Neill emphasizes that the initiative is voluntary for year 7 and 8 students, aiming to offer a fulfilling experience without mandating full attendance.
