    To accommodate the compulsory wellbeing hours, most schools have to change their timetable.

    That is insanity. It's really not in the spirit of things. Just run 10 minutes tutor in the morning and 6 40 minutes on your half day. The odd staff member will get 21 or 21 10 but that is hardly worth writing home over. Sounds like a director of schools with notions if it's in the ETB sector

    Yes, it's the ridiculous times.

    8.50-9.48
    9.48-10.46
    Break
    10.56-11.54
    11.54-12.52 etc

    We had this before we changed to 40 minute classes but it was 38, you got used to it but its very odd!
