Gautam Buddh Nagar district administration revises school timings for Classes 1 to 8 in Noida and Greater Noida in response to prevailing extreme heat. Multiple reports state that, starting June 29, 2026, schools will operate from 7:00 AM to 12:00 PM until further orders. The order applies broadly across school categories, including government, government-aided, recognised and board-affiliated schools, and covers both Noida and Greater Noida.
Sources link the decision to continued high temperatures and hot, humid conditions in north India. They also cite delays in the southwest monsoon as a factor contributing to the heatwave-like conditions in the region. The revised schedule is intended to reduce students’ exposure to higher daytime temperatures and limit the risk of heat-related illnesses.
While the specific announcement timing varies by outlet, all accounts describe a consistent change for Classes 1 to 8, replacing earlier schedules with a morning-only session running through noon as the administration monitors weather conditions.
