A secondary school in Lincolnshire, England, has removed mirrors from its toilets, saying students were spending too much time in them, leading to delays between lessons and making some feel uncomfortable.
School Aims to Improve Punctuality and Comfort
William Farr Church of England Comprehensive School in Welton made the change after noticing that groups of students were gathering in the bathrooms, which was affecting punctuality.
Headmaster Grant Edgar explained that the school had been dealing with issues during transition periods, and the decision aimed to help students get to class on time, The Telegraph reported.
He also noted that the presence of large groups in the toilets made some students uneasy, which was another factor in the decision.
