Updated | By Darren, Keri and Sky
This would be the first of its kind in South African education.
Every school has its own systems and ways of making sure school children get the best out of their education.
A popular private school that's in South Africa, Curo Holdings, has done something that is incredibly unique in the education system of SA.

According to Business Tech, the school will start a programme called CurroPM, which will allow students to attend school in the afternoon.
This would be a first SA as we all know that school has always been in the morning.
Curro’s Durbanville High School will pilot this programme in 2023.
Students at Curro’s Durbanville High School will be able to choose an afternoon learning schedule instead of a morning one - or a hybrid of the two.

"This new offering will free up the morning time. This means that academic overachievers can sleep late after burning the midnight oil," says a Curro Durbanville High School statement.
CurroPM will only be available to learners in Grade 7 to 9.
