What is the reason for delaying the start of school?
The reasons for delaying the start of school will vary according to different periods and regions. The following are some common reasons that may delay the start of school:

1. Sudden epidemic: The most common reason for delaying the start of school is the sudden epidemic of infectious diseases. The outbreak of the epidemic may lead to emergency measures, including closing schools, to reduce crowd gathering and curb the spread of the disease. In this case, delaying the start of school can protect the health and safety of students and faculty.

2. Natural disasters: Natural disasters such as earthquakes, floods and typhoons may also delay the start of school. These disasters may cause damage to school facilities or inappropriate environmental conditions, affecting students' learning and safety. In this case, delaying the start of school can provide time for the school to resume normal operation and clean up.

3. Reconstruction or renovation of schools: Sometimes schools may need to be rebuilt or renovated to provide better learning environment and facilities. This may include repairing old buildings, building new classrooms, libraries or laboratories, etc. In this case, delaying the start of school can provide time for the school to complete the transformation work.

4. Education reform or system adjustment: sometimes education reform or school year system adjustment may be implemented, which may lead to the postponement of school opening. For example, change the academic system, adjust the curriculum or introduce new education policies. Delaying the start of school can help schools and teachers adapt to these changes and make relevant preparations.
