Hangzhou school offers its teachers time for love

A middle school in Hangzhou, Zhejiang province, is offering its teachers who are single or childless an extra holiday to share time with their "significant others".

The public Hangzhou Dinglan Experimental Middle School, in Jianggan district, employs 124 teachers, among which 40 percent are single.

They will be entitled to two halfday "romantic holidays" each month, as long as their teaching and academic work is complete.
