Several schools have already taken the initiative to lessen bag weights while some schools want to wait till the next academic year. From E-learning to lockers in school, some city schools are trying their best to ensure that weight of school bags are kept at a minimum. Some parents and students even say that they haven’t heard the notice from their schools yet. Some city schools want to wait till the next year. Principal of Kandivli School said that students in their schools do not carry any fancy things along with them; the school neither has any resources to initiate e-learning nor do they can afford to buy tablets for their students. The best they can do to reduce bag weight is by making changes in the time table which cannot be done before the new academic year.
