Make all schools in Australia have 4 days a week

The issue

I appreciate school as much as the next guy. Anyone can see at least some benefits to it, but home is just as important. If we have 4 days a week for schools in Australia, which means 3 day weekends, then we can have a day to ourselves at home. Studies show, that if a child is intelligent, then it doesn’t matter entirely about school. It is more important that learning is fostered in the household, preferably by loving and supporting parents. (School will be Monday thru Thursday, an extra hour a day if needed.)
