Pre-released Motion #1:
Secondary school students should be allowed to choose between attending school in the morning or the afternoon/evening.
Suggested Readings:
- Zambia made education free, now classrooms are crammed
- “You need to come early to school because there is a shortage of desks,” says 16-year-old pupil Richard Banda. “Two days ago I came late and I ended up sitting on the floor - it was so cold.”
- Why cities are full of uncomfortable benches
- In recent years, these competing interests have surfaced conflict over an unlikely interest: purposefully uncomfortable benches. Enter the New York City MTA. They’ve installed 'leaning bars’ to supplement traditional benches & save platform space. But designs like this carry an often invisible cost: they rob citizens of hospitable public space. And the people who experience this cost most directly are those experiencing homelessness.
