As the title says, should students be allowed to stay of school in hot weather like this? I mean, for me, it is far too hot to concentrate in school, most of the class (i'm guessing) would be half asleep in weather like this.

Yeah we should be able to have the day off if it is hotter than a certain high degree. Today at school, it was really hard to concentrate because everyone was really boiling, also to make it worse, we have to wear black jumpers. :eusa_wall I felt sick today because it was too hot.
LOL. Oh yes, let kids have the day off school so they can go home and play Habbo. Education is important so don't waste it :]
Lmaop.
I agrreee.
Its kk this week tho, jus colourin n stuff ;l! ( last week.
I'm used to hot days. So, no. xD
Yehh. Im hot but we allowed to tkae our blazers off. ;l ! And we have fans in most rooms n a./c in others p;
I presume you live in England?
In America and third world countries such as Africa the temperates are hotter than in the UK at the moment, and it's like that all year round. England get a little bit of sun and everyone expects the Country to stop :P
In the winter we (not me personally :P) moan it's too cold and we shouldn't have to get out of bed to go to school/work, then in Summer when it's hot we moan we shouldn't have to go to school/work cos it's too hot.
You should just enjoy the weather as it is, I'd rather be in college and chilling with mates outside on free periods/lunchbreaks than sat at home indoors.

And i didn't mean for us to stay at home and go on habbo, i'm just saying we should be allowed to stay at home or should be allowed to wear clothes that are cooler than our uniforms, alot of our uniforms in England are black with a white shirt, and black attracts the sun.
I feel sorry for the guy who had to wear a black jumper!!
So what if everyday of the summer is hot? Do you expect to just stay of school for the entierity of the summer or until it cools down?
I personally think that we should still have to go to school, but be aloud to wear what clothes we want to make us cooler and be aloud mini-fans!
I mean, if it gets too hot where you feel sick/cannot concentrate etc then you would get sent home anyway.
The whole country cannot stop because we are getting hotter weather, thats like saying if you go on holiday to a hotter country you will stay in an airconditioned hotel room ALL HOLIDAY!
Come winter, you'll be expecting days off because it's too cold. English people are just fussy.
Not fussy.. Most brits are just not used to the hot weather!Quote:

And about the winter thing, i don't think people should be allowed to stay home then, cos your allowed to wear coats and you have heating.
I would rather be cold right now than be as hot as i am now!
Btw, i'm not actually at school any more anyways, i'm 18.
I heard it's meant to be 35 on Wednesday, my worst day. Great :rolleyes:
Yeah it is meant to be around that.. suggestions on keeping cool please :p.
- Bring lots of icey water inQuote:

Stay indoors (It will be cooler)..
Drink lots of cold water
Although ice lollies are cold, there not the best thing on a really hot day!
If you really have to go out, take breaks and drink water.
Try to avoid busy places.
Soz but their use to it thanks :]Quote:

It's hard to stay in when the teachers want everyone out of the building at break and lunch :rolleyes:Quote:

Just open the windows and have a drink beside you and maybe have a fan aswell.
I undid the top two buttons of my shirt and the hist teacher told me it was "Unappropriate" :S
They said that to a lass at my school, and she said yeah well the lads aint complaining.. And got excluded for it "/Quote:

Yeah. Normally you're not allowed a drink in lesson (Well we wasn't) but they should give an exception because of the heat.Quote:

tbh that would just be stupid "/
That's why here in Spain we finish school in June :D
i think we should get the day off!
i mean, i'm originally from Belgium so i'm used to "cold" weather but i cant stand it when it gets too hot. ive nearly fainted once when it got so hot.
Very true, But some people find it rearly hard to work in hot conditions.Quote:

i couldn't care... this is my second week of my sumer holidays. rock on Scotland <3
It depends. Some people should stay off from school because they might suffer from heat stroke or whatever it is called, when you get to hot and start flaking out or getting really dizzy for the rest of the day. But if you don't, tough, you shall suffer in the heat :D Just take a bottle of water around with you for the entire day, and if you can't drink in lessons, tell the teacher tough poo, you don't want to be roasted. Or just drink alot at the beginning of the lesson...
Shouldn't mess around then, should you :rolleyes:Quote:
