How many lessons can be at school. Increased workload at school: how and how to help a child. I. General provisions and scope

Since the beginning of the school year, the Office of Rospotrebnadzor for the Tomsk Region has received many questions from parents about the organization of the educational process and the distribution of the workload of students in schools.

Hygienic requirements for the regime of the educational process in schools are regulated by sanitary and epidemiological rules and norms SanPiN 2.4.2.2821-10 "Sanitary and epidemiological requirements for the conditions and organization of education in educational institutions."

The number of hours allotted for classroom and extracurricular activities should not, in aggregate, exceed the value of the maximum weekly educational load.

Classes

2-4 cells

8-9 cells

10-11 classes

at 6 days a week, no more

at 5 days a week, no more

In institutions with in-depth study of individual subjects, lyceums and gymnasiums, training is carried out only in the first shift. In institutions that work in two shifts, education of 1st, 5th, graduating 9th and 11th grades and classes of compensatory education should be organized in the first shift.

The volume of the maximum allowable load during the day is:

For students of the 1st grade - should not exceed 4 lessons and 1 day a week - no more than 5 lessons, at the expense of a physical education lesson;

For students of grades 2 - 4 - no more than 5 lessons and once a week 6 lessons at the expense of a physical education lesson with a 6-day school week;

For students in grades 5 - 6 - no more than 6 lessons;

For students in grades 7 - 11 - no more than 7 lessons.

Modern scientific research has established that the biorhythmological optimum of mental performance in children of school age falls on the interval of 10-12 hours. During these hours, the greatest efficiency of assimilation of the material is noted at the lowest psychophysiological costs of the body. Therefore, for students of the 1st grade, the most difficult subjects must be taught in the 2nd lesson; 2-4 classes - 2-3 lessons; for students in grades 5-11 - at 2-4 lessons.

The mental performance of students is not the same on different days of the school week. Its level increases towards the middle of the week and remains low at the beginning (Monday) and at the end (Friday) of the week. Therefore, the distribution of the study load during the week is built in such a way that its largest volume falls on Tuesday and (or) Wednesday.

The duration of the lesson (academic hour) in all classes should not exceed 45 minutes, with the exception of Grade 1. The training of "first-graders" is carried out in compliance with the following additional requirements:

Training sessions are held on a 5-day school week and only on the first shift;

The use of a "stepped" learning mode in the first half of the year (in September, October - 3 lessons per day of 35 minutes each, in November-December - 4 lessons of 35 minutes each; January - May - 4 lessons of 45 minutes each) ;

Training is conducted without scoring the knowledge of students and homework;

Additional weekly holidays in the middle of the third quarter in the traditional mode of study.

The duration of the breaks between lessons is at least 10 minutes, for catering for children after 2 and 3 lessons, two breaks of 20 minutes each are set.

To meet the biological need for movement, regardless of the age of students, it is recommended to conduct at least 3 physical education lessons per week. Physical education classes are recommended to be included in the last lessons, after physical education lessons there are no lessons with written assignments and tests.

One of the problems of our time: what is more important for the child - the study load or all the same childhood? And how to put it all together.

The teaching load on schoolchildren of general education schools is carried out on the basis of Sanitary and epidemiological rules and regulations SANPIN 2.4.2.1178-02(with changes and additions)

In accordance with the above standards, the permissible weekly workload in hours for schoolchildren is:

Grade 1 - 20 hours with a 5-day week;

2 - 4 classes - 25 hours for a 6-day week and 22 hours for a 5-day week;

Grade 5 - 31 hours for a 6-day week and 28 hours for a 5-day week;

Grade 6 - 32 hours for a 5-day week and 29 hours for a 5-day week;

Grade 7 - 34 hours for a 6-day week and 31 hours for a 5-day week;

8 - 9 classes - 35 hours for a 6-day week and 32 hours for a 5-day week;

10-11 grades 36 hours for a 6-day week and 33 hours for a 5-day week.

With a 35-minute lesson in grades 2-4, the maximum allowable weekly load for a 6-day school week is 27 hours, for a 5-day school week - 25 hours.

The duration of a lesson for a student should not exceed 45 minutes.

Education of schoolchildren in the 1st grade should be carried out in compliance with the following requirements:

- training sessions are held only in the first shift;

– 5-day training week;

– organization of a facilitated school day in the middle of the school week;

- no more than 4 lessons per day;

- the duration of the lessons - no more than 35 minutes;

- organization in the middle of the school day of a dynamic pause lasting at least 40 minutes;

– use of the “stepped” mode of training in the first half of the year;

- organization of daytime sleep, 3 meals a day and walks for children attending an extended day group;

- learning without homework and scoring of students' knowledge;

– additional weekly holidays in the middle of the third quarter.

For health purposes and to facilitate the process of adaptation of children to the requirements of a general education institution in the 1st grade, a “stepped” method of gradually increasing the study load for a student is used:

- in September, October - 3 lessons of 35 minutes each;

- from the second quarter - 4 lessons of 35 minutes each.

Classes should start no earlier than 8 hours, without zero lessons.

In educational institutions with in-depth study of individual subjects, lyceums and gymnasiums, training is carried out only in the first shift.

In general educational institutions working in several shifts, education of 1st, 5th, graduation and compensatory classes should be organized in the first shift.

When using computer technology in the classroom, the continuous duration of classes directly with the video display terminal (VDT) and the implementation of preventive measures must comply with the hygienic requirements for video display terminals and personal electronic computers. After classes with VDT, it is necessary to carry out gymnastics for the eyes, which is performed at the workplace

In the classroom, work should alternate tasks of various nature. You should not perform one type of activity in the lesson throughout the entire time of independent work.

The total duration of practical work for students in grades 1-2 is 20-25 minutes, for students in grades 3-4 - 30-35 minutes.

The duration of continuous work with paper, cardboard, fabric for first graders is no more than 5 minutes, for students in 2 - 3 - 5 - 7 minutes, for students in 4 - 10 minutes, and when working with wood and wire - no more 45 minutes.

The duration of practical work in labor lessons for schoolchildren in grades 5-7 should not exceed 65% of the class time. The duration of continuous work on the main labor operations for students in grade 5 is no more than 10 minutes, in grade 6 - 12 minutes, in grade 7 - 16 minutes.

Hours of optional, group and individual lessons should be included in the volume of the maximum allowable load.

The schedule of lessons is compiled separately for compulsory and optional classes. Extracurricular activities should be scheduled on the days with the fewest compulsory lessons.

There is a 45-minute break between the start of optional classes and the last lesson of compulsory classes.

There are no double lessons in the elementary grades. For schoolchildren in grades 5-9, dual lessons are allowed for laboratory, test work, labor lessons, physical education for the intended purpose (skiing, swimming). Double lessons in basic and profile subjects for students in grades 5-9 are allowed provided they are carried out after a physical education lesson or a dynamic pause of at least 30 minutes. In grades 10-11, double lessons are allowed in basic and specialized subjects.

The duration of breaks between lessons should be at least 10 minutes, a long break (after 2 or 3 lessons) - 30 minutes: instead of one big break, it is allowed to arrange two breaks of 20 minutes each after 2 and 3 lessons. Changes must be carried out with the maximum use of fresh air, in outdoor games. When conducting a daily dynamic pause, it is allowed to extend the long break up to 45 minutes, of which at least 30 minutes are allotted for the organization of motor active activities for students on the sports ground of the institution, in the gym or in recreations equipped with simulators.

Homework assignments are given to schoolchildren, taking into account the possibility of their completion within the following limits: in the 1st grade (from the second half of the year) - up to 1 hour, in the 2nd - up to 1.5 hours, in the 3rd - 4th - up to 2 hours, in 5 - 6th - up to 2.5 hours, at 7 - 8th - up to 3 hours, at 9 - 11th - up to 4 hours.

The regional department of the department posted information on the distribution of the teaching load in secondary schools on its website.

Since the beginning of the school year, the department has received many questions from parents about the organization of the educational process and the distribution of the workload of students in schools, the report says. Hygienic requirements for the educational process in schools are regulated by the document "Sanitary and epidemiological requirements for the conditions and organization of education in educational institutions."

The number of hours allotted for classroom and extracurricular activities should not in aggregate exceed the maximum weekly load.

In institutions with in-depth study of individual subjects, lyceums and gymnasiums, training is carried out only in the first shift. In institutions operating in two shifts, teaching of the first, fifth, final ninth and 11th grades and classes of compensatory education should also be organized in the first shift.

The volume of the maximum allowable load during the day is:

- for first grade students - no more than four lessons and one day a week - no more than five lessons, at the expense of a physical education lesson;

- for pupils of the second-fourth grades - no more than five lessons and six lessons once a week at the expense of a physical education lesson during a six-day school week;

- for students of the fifth-sixth grades - no more than six lessons;

- for students of the seventh-eleventh grades - no more than seven lessons.

Scientific research has established that the optimal level of mental performance in children of school age falls on the interval of 10:00 - 12:00. During these hours, the greatest efficiency of assimilation of the material is noted at the lowest psychophysiological costs of the body. Therefore, for first-grade students, the most difficult subjects must be taught in the second lesson; second-fourth grades - at the second-third lessons; for students of the fifth-eleventh grades - in the second-fourth lessons.

The mental performance of schoolchildren is not the same on different days of the week. The level of efficiency increases towards the middle of the week and remains low at the beginning of the school week, on Monday, and at the end, that is, on Friday. Therefore, the distribution of the study load during the week is built in such a way that its largest volume falls on Tuesday or Wednesday.

The duration of the lesson in all classes should not exceed 45 minutes, with the exception of the first class. The training of "first-graders" should be carried out in compliance with additional requirements:

- training sessions are held on a five-day school week and only on the first shift;

- a "stepped" training mode is used: in September, October - three lessons a day for 35 minutes each, in November-December - four lessons for 35 minutes each; in January-May - four lessons of 45 minutes each;

- training is carried out without scoring the knowledge of students and homework;

- additional weekly holidays are introduced in the middle of the third quarter with the traditional mode of study.

The duration of the breaks between lessons should be at least ten minutes; to organize the nutrition of children after the second and third lessons, two breaks of 20 minutes each are established.

To meet the biological need for movement, regardless of the age of schoolchildren, it is recommended to conduct at least three physical education lessons per week. Physical education is recommended to be placed among the last lessons. After them, there are no lessons with written assignments and tests.

The agency clarifies that in case of violation of these requirements in schools, you can apply in writing to the Rospotrebnadzor department for the Tomsk region: the institution will be checked for compliance with sanitary and epidemiological rules and regulations.

Document overview

Sanitary and epidemiological requirements for the conditions and organization of training in educational institutions have been adjusted (SanPiN 2.4.2.2821-10).

It has been established that on the territory of newly constructed buildings of a general educational organization it is necessary to provide a parking place for vehicles intended for the transportation of students, including students with disabilities.

It is fixed that in the design and construction of several buildings of a general educational organization located on the same territory, heated (warm) transitions from one building to another should be provided. Unheated crossings are allowed only in the III B climatic subregion and the IV climatic region.

Benches should now be provided for dressing rooms.

The requirements for small-scale general educational organizations have been established.

Prior to the changes, it was stipulated that the class size, with the exception of compensatory education classes, should not exceed 25 people.

Now the number of students in a class is determined based on the calculation of compliance with the area norm per student, compliance with the requirements for the arrangement of furniture in classrooms, including the distance of places for classes from a light-bearing wall, requirements for natural and artificial lighting.

The hygienic requirements for the maximum total weekly educational load of students have been revised.

It is fixed that for first-graders the total amount of load during the day should not exceed 4 lessons and once a week 5 lessons due to a physical education lesson, for grades 2-4 - 5 lessons and once a week 6 lessons due to a physical education lesson, for 5-7 classes - 7 lessons, for 8-11 classes - 8 lessons.

The amendments allow for dual physical education lessons (skiing, swimming in the pool).

The duration of continuous use of a computer with an LCD monitor in the classroom has been determined. For grades 1-2, this is no more than 20 minutes, for grades 3-4 - no more than 25 minutes, for grades 5-6 - no more than 30 minutes, for grades 7-11 - 35 minutes.

It has been established that officials and employees of educational organizations whose activities are related to the upbringing and education of children undergo professional hygienic training and certification during employment and then at least once every 2 years.
