Summary
This study tests a school-based program called Charge Your Brainzzz, designed to help Dutch teenagers improve their sleep habits. About 1,200 first-year vocational students will participate, along with teachers and health staff. The program includes lessons, changes to school policies (like start times and screen use), and family involvement. Researchers will measure sleep quality, duration, and daytime sleepiness before, right after, and six months after the program to see if it works.
