South Australian Labor Leader Peter Malinauskas has vowed to change the structure of the traditional school day if he is elected Premier in March.

In a media release on Monday, Malinauskas said that the 9 a.m.– 3 p.m. school day is a legacy of the past and incompatible with many parents’ modern working hours.
