In consultation with Health, Safety and Wellbeing consultants, Brisbane City Council and Department of Transport, we have considered the amount of road traffic as well as congestion on public transport during peak hour. By shifting the start of our school day we are reducing the need for our students to access public transport or commute along busy streets at peak times. We are also able to support families who will need to drop off/pick up younger siblings at primary schools first.
Additionally, we have considered research which indicates that a later start to the school day could be beneficial for students both in terms of their academic studies and their overall wellbeing.
