Exact school hours are left up to individual schools. Generally, primary school hours would be about 9 am - 3 pm, high school approximately 8:30 am - 2:45 pm, and matriculation college about 9 am - 4 pm. School is held from Mondays through to Fridays.

Work hours naturally have a greater variance than school hours, with great dependence on the type of job involved. Nominally, most jobs would involve 35 hour weeks.
