Closing schools at 12 noon because of the heat is more dangerous

The heat that is persisting in the afternoon is at the maximum at 12 noon.A request had been made by the authorities of the North Central schools to close schools at 12 noon because of the intense heat.This request had been turned down by the related authorities of

the ministry of education for that reason.Hence the school hours would terminate at 1.30pm as usual.

The request made by the authorities of the North Central region had been referred to the ministry of health and the meteorological department.They had said that if the schools close at 12 noon the children would be subjected to the heat which is at the maximum at that time.Hence the decision not to close all national schools in the North Central region was arrived at.
