"Schools must enhance physical education, guarantee students have enough rest time, reduce homework and improve classroom lighting," a notice on the ministry's website revealed.

This is all good news for present and future students. We need to pay more attention to our eye sight and provide suitable conditions for students.

Of course it will take time and maybe decades until positive results are available.

As education here is so competitive especially in the nation's classrooms leading up to the college entrance exam we cannot expect students to study less.

However providing well-lit classrooms, white boards or blackboards that are easy to see, enough time for outside classroom exercise and the provision of a balanced diet are bold and appropriate moves.

Elsewhere increased attention to the amount of time students spend on the computer, sms text phone and in front of the TV will also contribute to better health outcomes.

For several years now I have witnessed attention to student's posture being paid via the use of supportive back and shoulder braces and this is an area where China leads many other nations in terms of paying attention to students back care.

Furthermore I'm increasingly noticing young students wheeling heavy bags to school compared to earlier years when they wouldlug them over their shoulder like over burdened camels.

Let's hope years later when we look across the classroom we see students with bright smiles and the ever infrequent use of glasses to aid vision.
