Russia's chief sanitary doctor Gennady Onishchenko believes that school administrations should not teach difficult subjects like math and physics to students on Thursdays because it is "the hardest day of the week" for children.

"Children have their own biorhythms and Thursday is the hardest day of the week," Onishchenko said during an interview on Ekho Moskvy radio station, adding: "Therefore, it is not recommended to teach difficult subjects like mathmatics and physics on Thursdays because those subjects require a heavier load on the brain."

He said there are special conditions in school scheduling and that parents should know about them. He added that parents should take a more active role in curriculum planning to cut down on excessive mental loads on children.
