I Must Be Missing Something

Every subject is assigned certain test days and we are not supposed to deviate from these days. The reason is simple, the kids should not be over burdened with too many tests to study for on the same day. They can't do a subject justice if they are studying for too many exams on the same day.

What I want to know is why it is okay to give kids an extended day of school, extra classes with extra homework and extra studying? Aren't these kids being burdened as well? Aren't these kids being deprived of much needed studying time?

Is there something wrong with the way I am seeing things? Am I missing something?
