The chairs recline and have built in footrests in the desk for this purpose.

    Okay as someone who can never sleep upright I was going to rip on the notion of taking a nap in those despite looking comfy, until I saw the footrest, that actually does look comfortable enough to sleep in.

    Bruh they are taking efficiency and comfort to a whole new level.

    Plus those kids are actually happy unlike kids under capitalist systems (I know I’m generalizing but being in a general content/not being exploited mindset helps one fall asleep).

      Chinese education is notoriously back-breaking (or brain-breaking?) and starts early, but I think there’s probably good research into naps for kids, so this is still a good thing regardless of their education system.

      It’s been known for a while for example that teens go to school too early for their circadian clock and moving first period just one hour later gives a lot of benefits. I’m just not sure about research involving children in between class naps.

        It would be nice if China is able to make education less grinding for children in this decade.

        A bunch of Asian countries face the same problem (like South Korea and India) but in the places there seems to be very little scope for improvement as no structural change is ever considered. China is in a unique position in that aspect since a lot of course correction takes place.

          With the recent ban on education for profit I would expect to see changes soon… takes some time I think to take effect but China took a step in the right direction with this legislation and I expect more to come.
