Is Sunday a school night?

[MrsTerryPratchett]

There’s a hotly contested issue on another thread. I think Sunday is a school night because school is the next day, meaning early to bed, ready. But some people are saying that a school night is when you’ve been at school, so Friday but not Sunday. They are wrong. AIBU?

I'm a teacher too. Sunday is definitely a school night. Friday is not. YANBU, OP.

I didn’t think it was that hotly contested on the other thread tbh, I thought most people agreed that a school night meant the night before you have to go to school so regular bedtime, homework done etc!!

Anyway, Sunday night is definitely considered a school night in our house.

Teacher and I agree.

Do you want to go out on Friday night for a couple of beers and to see a band? Definitely. No school tomorrow!

Do you want to go out on Sunday for a couple of beers and to see a band? Can't, sorry. It's a school night.

Yes, school the next day means bed early night before so its a school night then when that is that situation.

Well,it depends if you have work tomorrow or not. In our house we don't have children at school,but we still say it's a school night if we have work the following day. Not everyone works Monday to Friday.

YES! Wine or late playing out = school night.

Sunday is a school night, unless its before a bank Holiday Monday or before a school holiday week.

Most people but there were holdouts. Wrong and bad holdouts.

Now an adult working Monday to Friday Sunday definitely a “work” or “school” night.
The daytime on Sunday is not a work day for me, but that pit of the stomach feeling is definitely real from about now.

If you are working the next day it’s a school night!

Sunday night is the most school night of school nights!
A school night is when you hsve to get up for school the next day.

It is a school night, but we definitely don’t treat it like one. Much more like a Friday or Saturday.

It’s a half school night

It is the schooliest of all the school nights, a full week early mornings, exhaustion and monotony is in front of us. (I’m not a teacher and my children are adults but it’s still a school night.)

Is on our house. So late nights are allowed Friday and Sat but not Sunday in term time

Sunday is definitely a school night, even though now it's work.

I have to do the boring prep making lunch and can't stay up late.

Sunday to Thursdays are school/work nights.
By 5/6pm on a Sunday its time to start getting ready for the new school/work week ahead. Dinner should be done or eaten soon, clothes/uniform sorted, bag packed and lunch sorted, shower/bath then chill for a bit before a reasonably early night.

Sundays are the ultimate school night. As a child it was homework, roast dinner and Heartbeat while my mum furiously ironed the uniform for the week.

Now I'm the one ironing the uniform. Don't watch crap Sunday night TV any more though.

Yes

Eh? Have you left out a word or are you trying to confuse us?
