All well and good spouting such nonsense, unless everyone demanded the
school to open an hour earlier and the teachers also wanting to switch
hours, people aren't going to be able to change the times, the only way
is by enough people campaigning to switch to CET/CEST.

All well and good getting up an hour earlier when our clock haven't
changed, as everything else will still be running on the current time,
so may not be open an hour earlier.
