I chose to research about the countries Switzerland and Italy.
Switzerland
In Switzerland, the school year starts between mid-August and mid-September, has two terms or semesters and around 12 weeks holiday a year. All together, throughout the whole year, the children go for a total of 184 days. Children there usually go to school in the morning from around 8:30 am until 11:30 am. They have lunch time for 2 hours and then start again at 1:30 and continue until 3:00 or 4:00 pm. Swiss children go to school 5 days a week or on all the days of the week except for  Wednesdays, it depends on where you are living. That works out as 920 days (4600 hours) in one academic year.
Italy
In Italy, primary schools ordinarily schedule classes for 30 hours per week,  Mondays to Saturdays. Children in Italy go to school 200 days per year. In the entire year, students stay at school 1,000 hours per year. The school goes from mid-September to mid-June and is divided into three terms.

I wanted to research about schools in Iran and Vietnam.

IRAN
Iran is a nation in the northern hemisphere with a school year similar to European countries. The average number of students per classroom is 27. From ages 5 to 18, boys and girls are educated separately. The students in Iran go to school for 10 months a year, or about 200 active days per year, from September to June. Classes start at 7:30 am - 1:00 pm, which is 5.5 hours per day.
5.5 hours x 200 days = 1,100 hours per year
5.5 hours x 60 minutes/hour = 330 minutes per day
330 minutes/day x 200 days/year = 66,000 minutes per year

VIETNAM
In Vietnam, children normally start school at 6 years old. But at 4 or 5 years old , they sometimes are taught the alphabet and basic math. The country's literacy rate is over 90%. The school year usually last from September until May and consist of 36 weeks, which is 216 days per year. The school week in Vietnam is 6 days, beginning on Monday and ending on Saturday, but children start at 7 am - 12 pm, which is 5 hours per day.
5 hours x 216 days = 1,080 hours per year
5 hours x 60 minutes/hour = 300 minutes per day

300 minutes/day x 216 days/year = 64,800 minutes per year

I decided to research about the schools in China and Australia. In China schools start around school starts in September .A typical school day in China is from 7:30 a.m  to 5:00 p.m and is about 9 hours and 30 minutes(55,800 minutes) and has a two hour lunch break. In Australia you attend school for 200 days a year. And schools start in late January to mid December, each day is from 9 a.m to 3:30 p.m which is 6 hours and 30 minutes(37,800 minutes). You also have to attend school for 11 years.

# data[].attributes.body
I chose China and Russia.

In China, you have about 238 days (from September-July). Each day lasts from 7:30 AM to 5:00 PM with a two hour break for lunch. 238 days x 6.5 hours per day = 1547 hours. 1547 hours x 60 minutes per hour = 92,820 minutes!

In Russia, you have about 180 days (from September to late May). Each day lasts from 8:30 AM to 3:00 PM - also 6.5 hours per day. 180 days x 6.5 hours per day = 1170 hours. 1170 hours x 60 minutes per hour = 70,200 minutes!

As you can see, different countries have different ideas for education.

# data[].attributes.body
I decided to look up two countries, Brazil and India.

My first country was India, students that are 1-5 go to school in India 200 days a year which is also 800 hours which means that would be 48,000 minutes each year. Although students that are 6-8 go to school 220 days a year which would then be 1,000 hours of teaching a year also in minutes it would be 60,000 minutes each year. Indian students go to school 25 percent more than the typical 180 school days here in the U.S.
My second country was Brazil. Brazilian students go to school 200 days a year which is also 800 hours=48,000 minutes. But they split the days into two terms, the terms are usually from February to June and from August to December that is the same from the elementary side of it and the middle school side of it.

# data[].attributes.body
I decided to look up China and Canada.I found out that Chinese students attend school 210 days in a school year. American students only go to school 180 days a year. U.S. students have 36 weeks of school but China only has 35 weeks. The reason China has more days is because China goes to school 6 days a week instead of 5.Chinese students go to school 20 percent more days than we do. Now Canada has school for 190 days except for Quebec who has 180 instead. Canadian students start school in September after Labor Day. On the other hand they end in June.

J APAN
For my first research project I have decided to select Japan. Japanese students go to school 5 days a week like american kids. However if desired, you may take optional classes on Saturday which can be free. Public schools in Japan usually consist of  200 days for a school year. Japan consist of about 40 weeks of school if you are counting a school week and no additional classes or 29 days if counting weekends. The hours per day students attend is between 6-7. The minutes per day students may attend is from 360-420.
AUSTRALIA
For the next country I chose, I chose Australia. Like American kids, Australian kids go to school 5 days a week. Australia however, divides their school year into terms. Terms last about 9-11 weeks each and there are four terms for every school year. In conclusion there is about 36-44 weeks a school year. Usually school days last from 9-3:30. This makes it about 6.5 hours every day. So in average the minutes per day for student education is 390 minutes.

The two countries I have chosen are  Romania and Argentina.

Romania
Number of weeks in a year: 36 weeks.
Number of days in a year: 175 days.
Number of hours in a day: 4 hours.
Number of hours in a year: 175 days X 4 hours = 700 hours.
Number of minutes in a day: 4 hours X 60 minutes  = 240 minutes.
Number of minutes in a year: 700 hours X 60 minutes = 42000 minutes.

Argentina
Number of weeks in a year: 40 weeks.
Number of days in a year: 200 days.
Number of hours in a day:  4 hours.
Number of hours in a year: 200 days X 4 hours  = 800 hours.
Number of minutes in a day:  4 hours X 60 minutes = 240 minutes.
Number of minutes in a year: 800 hours X 60 minutes =  48000 minutes.

I have decided to select children from Norway and children from England. In Norway, the average school year is 190 days. Children in England go to school for 195 days. Similar to the U.S., Norwegian kids go to school Monday-Friday. they start at about 8:30 AM and end at around 2-3 PM. England is similar also, as kids there go Monday through Friday. Schools there normally start at around 8:30 AM and end about 3:00 PM. Let's say that kids in Norway start school at 8:30 AM and end at 3:00 PM. If so, that would mean that kids in Norway spend about 390 minutes a day in school. 390 minutes X 190 days = 74,100 days in school a year for kids in Norway. If school starts at 8:30 AM and ends at 3:00 PM in England, that means they spend an equal amount of time per day in school as kids in Norway (390). 390 minutes a at X 195 days = 76,050 minutes a year.
