Research has shown that quality sleep is a vital part of effective learning and wellbeing. As such, sleep deserves a place in the national curriculum to ensure that every child can reach their full potential. The Sleep Manifesto<\/em>, a collaboration between\u00a0Sleep Action<\/em> and sleep researchers from across the country, calls for this reform, working to integrate sleep education into the lives of students and educators alike.<\/p>\n
