Noida Schools Directed to Limit Daily Screen Time for Students to 30-60 Minutes
The Gautam Buddh Nagar administration has directed all schools in Noida and Greater Noida to limit daily screen time to 30 minutes for primary students and 60 minutes for upper-primary students. This follows complaints about excessive use of smart and digital boards, sometimes up to four to five hours daily. The guidelines emphasize using these boards as supplementary tools for explaining concepts and displaying relevant material, aiming to reduce health risks like eye strain and headaches while promoting balanced learning activities. Compliance will be monitored by designated officials.
