On the 11th, a Mexican government official revealed that due to opposition from parents, think tanks, and local authorities, the Mexican government has cancelled the plan to start summer vacation 40 days early in preparation for the World Cup. Last week, Mexican Education Minister Mario Delgado said at an event that considering factors such as preparing for the World Cup and heat waves, "we will end this school year on June 5," which is 40 days earlier than usual.
