Today the first "Vzletai" School Forum opened in Ufa. The Acting Head of Bashkortostan, Radiy Khabirov, in his speech proposed to switch to a five-day school week. He believes that children are very overtasked by the school program and should spend the weekend with their families. At the same time, during the transition to the five-day week, the salary of teachers should remain the same. Radiy Khabirov proposed to devote eight out of the 32 free Saturdays to school.

For example, the first Saturday may be devoted to the school-wide sports day, where pupils can spend time together in sports. The second Saturday in October can be themed to the study of the native land, inviting famous countrymen or labor heroes. A November Saturday, according to the head of the region, can be devoted to studying the culture of the peoples of Bashkortostan. Proposals for other Saturdays will be developed today and announced during panel sessions of the educational forum.

“We would like our children to finish school healthy, happy, beautiful people, so I propose to turn to the five-day week,” said Radiy Khabirov.
